“…Conducting these experiments on the trunk neuromasts of zebrafish larvae allowed these structures to be visualized with Nomarski optics (Metcalfe et al, 1985) while intact on the body. The morphology of these neuromasts changes little over the course of growth (Webb and Shirey, 2003), as in other species (Munz, 1989). Therefore, our results have the potential to be applicable to the superficial neuromasts of a broad diversity of larval and adult fishes.…”

“…As in other species (Blaxter and Fuiman, 1989), the lateral line at the larval stage includes only a small number of neuromasts, which are similar to the superficial neuromasts of adult fish (Münz, 1989;Webb and Shirey, 2003). Additionally, almost all of the 31 neuromasts on each side of the body are easily visualized with transmitted illumination because of the transparent bodies of the larvae (McHenry and van Netten, 2007).…”

“…The cupulae of canal neuromasts are generally hemispherical with a diameter of hundreds of micrometers. Superficial neuromasts have elongated cupulae that are an order of magnitude smaller in diameter (Münz, 1989) (Fig.·1). In both, water flow causes the cupula to deflect, which is transduced into graded receptor potentials in the hair cells by bundles of stereocilia that are linked to the kinocilia (Gillespie and Walker, 2001).…”

“…Since the main purpose of the present study was aimed at understanding the respective auditory roles of SC and WGB, therefore, frequencies lower than 0.4 kHz were not investigated in the present study because many studies have indicated that stimuli below 0.4 kHz could trigger evoked potentials of lateral line which could compound the intended studies of auditory functions (Harris and van Bergeijk 1962;Münz 1989;Kroese and Schellart 1992;Kenyon et al 1998). In experiment 1, hearing threshold levels were determined at the following frequencies: 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, 4.0, and 5.0 kHz.…”
