Are superficial neuromasts proprioceptors underlying fast copulatory behavior?

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: Eduardo Rosa-Molinar from the University of Turin, Italy have published the Article: Are superficial neuromasts proprioceptors underlying fast copulatory behavior?, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
  • what: The authors provide the first detailed assessment of the number and distribution of superficial neuromasts in adult female and male mosquitofish. The authors examine how the reorganization of these cutaneous receptors could control precise positioning and timing to perform fast and synchronous movements for copulatory behavior. An independent experiment was conducted to assess the role of particular superficial neuromasts in copulatory behavior. Similarly, the authors propose that Poeciliids . . .
