Description for Electroreceptors and Other Specialized Receptors in Lower Vertrebrates
Paperback. Editor(s): Fessard, A. Series: Handbook of Sensory Physiology. Num Pages: 336 pages, biography. BIC Classification: MB. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 244 x 171 x 19. Weight in Grams: 586.

The four classes of sensory organs considered here differ widely from one another in many respects. One might even say that the only thing they have in common is that they belong to cold-blooded vertebrates. These classes are: 1. the directionally sensitive lateral-line mechanoreceptors of fishes and amphi bians (Chapter 7); 2. the pseudobranchial organs ... Read more
