...Alexandra Venuto; Stacey Thibodeau-Beganny; Josef G. Trapani; Timothy Erickson ABSTRACT Larval zebrafish achieve neutral buoyancy by swimming up to the surface and taking in air through their mouths to inflate their swim bladders. We define this behavior as ‘surfacing’. Little is known about...

... and the swim bladder work together remains elusive. Gathering experimental evidence on the in situ motion of fish auditory structures while avoiding artifacts caused by surgical exposure of the structures has been challenging for decades. Synchrotron radiation-based tomography with high spatio-temporal...

.... Unilateral excision of saccular otoliths (sagittae) decreased AEP amplitude; unexpectedly, decreases differed for right versus left otolith excision. A final set of experiments manipulated the sound pressure-responsive swim bladder. Swim bladder excision further reduced the magnitude of AEP responses...

Sisneros We investigated the roles of the swim bladder and the lateral line system in sound localization behavior by the plainfin...
