Localization of electroreceptive function in rabbits
Physiology & Behavior, 2003The detection process by which animals react to the presence of electromagnetic fields (EMFs) may be a form of sensory transduction. However, the anatomic location of signal transduction in most species is unknown. Attempts to solve this problem by applying local EMFs and registering the resulting changes in the electroencephalogram (EEG) have not ...

Convergent designs for electrogenesis and electroreception
Current Opinion in Neurobiology, 1995New- and old-world tropical electric fish lack a common electrical ancestor, suggesting that the mechanisms of signal generation and recognition evolved independently in the two groups. Recent research on convergent designs for electrogenesis and electroreception has focused on the structure of electric organs, the neural circuitry controlling the ...

Electroreception in the Ratfish ( Hydrolagus colliei )
Science, 1980Behavioral and neurophysiological experiments and anatomical work indicate that the ampullar structures on the head of fish of the subclass Holocephali are sense organs responsive to weak electric fields and are functionally and structurally homologous to the ampullae of Lorenzini in elasmobranchs.

Taxonomy of Electroreceptive Teleosts
1990Taxonomy is viewed by some as a dull and boring subject. This is understandable when one thinks of some old-fashioned museums that present endless shelves of, say, dead fish preserved in alcohol. Very often these fish are unattractively bleached, unnaturally oriented, difficult to see through the jar, and covered partly by an identifying tag.

Ecological Aspects of Electroreception
1978Proper placement of electroreception as an ecosensory function within the array of the different sensory modalities seems difficult; however, some close relationship with vision can be established. Among the vertebrates, visual receptors and the many accessory dioptric and related structures are most highly developed in birds and fishes, but for ...
