title: The electrosensitivity of the lateral line of the European eel, Anguilla anguilla L.
abstract: The lateral line neuromast of the eel (Anguilla anguilla) are slightly sensitive to electric current (threshold current density about 1 x 10(-6) A/cm2). A comparison is made with threshold values found by several authors by means of conditioning experiments.
