electroreception
- Waveform sensitivity of electroreceptors in the pulse-type weakly electric fish Gymnotus omarorum
Summary: Electroreceptive afferents of pulse-type gymnotiform electric fish are highly sensitive to phase-frequency distortion of the EOD waveform, implying that the accepted dichotomy between the amplitude- and time-coding systems requires revision.
- Differences in electrosensory anatomy and social behavior in an area of sympatry between two species of mormyrid electric fishes
Summary: Differences in the sensory system that mediates electric communication correlate with differences in social behavior between two sympatric species of African mormyrid fishes.
