... in understanding communication between sexes. To date, sexual dimorphism of the electrosensory system has only been observed in the ampullae of Lorenzini of the lesser-spotted catshark, Scyliorhinus canicula [Crooks and Waring, 2013]. Variation in the structure and morphology of the ampullae was observed between...

...Barbara E. Wueringer The ampullae of Lorenzini are the electroreceptors of elasmobranchs. Ampullary pores located in the elasmobranch skin are each connected to a gel-filled canal that ends in an ampullary bulb, in which the sensory epithelium is located. Each ampulla functions as an independent...

... and ultrastructure support the homology with the ampullae of Lorenzini of elasmobranchs. Single units recorded from the buccal branch of the anterior lateral line nerve are either lateral line or ampullary in character, the former being sensitive only to mechanical stimuli, the latter to both mechanical and to weak...
