The olfactory organ of schilbid catfish Eutropiichthys vacha (Hamilton, 1822): morphological and ultrastructural studies

Abstract: Background A study of the olfactory organ structure in freshwater catfish, Eutropiichthys vacha, was carried out to explore the cellular constituents by aid of light as well as scanning and transmission electron microscopy. Results The paired elongated olfactory organs were situated on the dorsolateral facet of the head in the mold of simple pits. The olfactory organ was made up of a series of leaflets, the lamellae, which embedded into both sidewa… Show more

“…As in all vertebrates, the fish olfactory epithelium comprises receptor, supporting, basal, and goblet mucus-secreting cells. In addition to other specific cell that is found in particular circumstances, such as labyrinth and rod-tipped cells ( Ghosh, 2021 ) and even other infrequently present receptor cells such as crypt neurons ( Cheung et al ., 2021 ), as well as Kappe neurons ( Cheung et al ., 2021 ).…”
