Excerpt from The Anatomy and Development of the Lateral Line System in Amia Calva
With a few exceptions, all these descriptions, so far as they relate to the cranial part of the lateral system, are of a general character only, giving little more than the course of the main canals. The development of the canals, the number and posi tion of the organs, and their innervation, receive but scant attention. This has doubtless been largely due, as Merkel sug gests, to the difficulties attending this part of the investigation before the introduction and perfection of modern methods of research but this cannot have been the only reason, for most of the work could easily have been done by any of the earlier writers. The purely descriptive part of the subject seems simply to have been neglected in the greater interest attaching to the histological and physiological sides, so that it is only within the last five or six years that the constant relations of the cranial canals to the dermal bones of the head, and their importance in determining these bones in doubtful cases, have been recognized. Both Sagemehl and Van Wijhe have called special attention to this, and Sagemehl further says (no. 12, p. 182, note) that the lateral canals seem to deserve a more careful study than has hitherto been given them.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book comprehensively explores the anatomy and development of the lateral line system in the bowfin, a fascinating species of fish. The lateral line system is a sensory system found in many aquatic animals, and it plays a vital role in detecting movement and vibrations in the surrounding water. The author thoroughly examines the course and position of the canals, the number and placement of sensory organs, and the innervation of the system. The book also delves into the formation and subsequent division of pores and branch canals, providing a detailed understanding of their development. Additionally, the author discusses the similarities and differences between the lateral line system in the bowfin and other species, placing the bowfin within a broader biological context. Through meticulous research and detailed illustrations, this book offers valuable insights into the structure and function of the lateral line system, contributing to our knowledge of sensory systems in aquatic organisms. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
