| Abstract: | Summary The Turkistan catfish,Glyptosternum reticulatum, has highly sensitive electroreceptors (threshold voltage gradient 1  V/cm) that detect a voltage drop across the skin. These electroreceptors were found to be sensitive to magnetic stimulation. |
| Keywords: | Catfish electroreceptors skin magnetic stimulation siluriform fishes lateral line organ |
