Electric organ discharges and electric images during electrolocation [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Biology, 1999 ABSTRACT Weakly electric fish use active electrolocation – the generation and detection of electric currents – to explore their surroundings. Although electrosensory systems include some of the most extensively understood circuits in the vertebrate central nervous system, relatively little is known quantitatively about how fish ...

The cytoskeleton of the electric tissue of Electrophorus electricus, L.
Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2000 The electric eel Electrophorus electricus is a fresh water teleost showing an electrogenic tissue that produces electric discharges. This electrogenic tissue is distributed in three well-defined electric organs which may be found symmetrically along both

The Astonishing Behavior of Electric Eels
Frontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2019 The remarkable physiology of the electric eel (Electrophorus electricus) made it one of the first model species in science. It was pivotal for understanding animal electricity in the 1700s, was investigated by Humboldt and Faraday in the 1800s, was ...
