Detection of Water Flow by Japanese Eel (Anguilla japonica): Behavioral and Pharmacological Analyses [PDF]
Eels migrate long distances and their spatial learning ability based on extra-maze visual cues has been examined in the laboratory. Here, I examine the discriminative properties of water flow in their spatial cognition.
