The Electric Image in Weakly Electric Fish: Perception of Objects of Complex Impedance
Journal of Experimental Biology, 2000ABSTRACT Weakly electric fish explore the environment using electrolocation. They produce an electric field that is detected by cutaneous electroreceptors; external objects distort the field, thus generating an electric image. The electric image of objects of complex impedance was investigated using a realistic model, which was able to ...

Sensorimotor adaptation to destabilizing dynamics in weakly electric fish
Current BiologyHumans and other animals can readily learn to compensate for changes in the dynamics of movement. Such changes can result from an injury or changes in the weight of carried objects. These changes in dynamics can lead not only to reduced performance but also to dramatic instabilities.

Active Electroreception in Weakly Electric Fish
2017American gymnotiformes and African mormyriformes have evolved an active sensory system using a self-generated electric field as a carrier of signals. Objects polarized by the discharge of a specialized electric organ project their images on the skin where electroreceptors tuned to the time course of the self-generated field transduce local signals ...

The Metabolic Cost of Electric Signalling in Weakly Electric Fish
2013Wave-type weakly electric fish emit a highly regular electric discharge using a specialized electric organ. This electric organ discharge (EOD) forms the basis for an electric sense used for navigation, prey detection and communication. The metabolic cost of the EOD is not fully understood, but recent research suggests that it constitutes a significant

Regeneration of electroreceptors in weakly electric fish.
Ciba Foundation symposium, 1992Weakly electric teleost fish possess two classes of electroreceptors: tuberous and ampullary organs. Ampullary organs are used for detecting prey, while tuberous organs detect the fish's own electric organ discharges (EODs) and those of conspecifics.
