Abstract

Traditionally, the sensitivity of electric fish to electric stimuli has been investigated using a variety of electronically generated signal functions, for example sine, square, and sawtooth waves (both continuous and pulsed). None of these resemble the speciesor sex-specific electric organ discharges (EODs) of fish. Therefore, EODs recorded on magnetic tape were used in open-loop playback ...
