This paper reviews the recent studies of the lateral line in fishes. The structure of free canal
neuromasts, their receptor units, lateral line canals, vesicle of Savi, innervation, size, and the …

Knowledge of the development and evolution of the neural crest sheds light on many of the
oldest unanswered questions in developmental biology. What is the role of germ layers in …

Morphological, physiological, behavioral, and developmental studies of the
mechanosensory lateral line system are used to define sources of morphological and …

The development of the cranial lateral line canals and neuromast organs are described in
postembryonic zebrafish (0–80 days postfertilization). Cranial canal development …

The lateral line system of teleost fish is composed of mechanosensory receptors
(neuromasts), comprising superficial receptors and others embedded in canals running …

The morphology of scales from four flank regions in two species of Scorpaeniforme fishes of
the family Platycephalidae was studied by applying light and scanning electron microscopy …

The complexities of the physics of underwater acoustics, the functional similarities of the hair
cells in the lateral line and ear, and the presence of mechanical linkages between the ear …

A new species of Moenkhausia is described from the rio Machado drainage, Amazon basin,
Brazil. It is diagnosed from congeners by its color pattern, consisting of the concentration of …

The lateral line scales are important features of bony fishes, but the three-dimensional
configuration of the scales and the lateral line canal segments contained within them have …

The mechanosensory lateral line system is the flow sensing system present in all 34000+
species of fishes. Its neuromast receptor organs, located on the skin or in bony canals on the …
