The Development of the Lateral Line System in Plaice (Pleuronectes Platessa) and Turbot (Scophthalmus Maximus)
The distribution of free neuromasts and the formation of the lateral line canals are described for two species of flatfish (plaice, Pleuronectes platessa L., and turbot, Scophthalmus maximus L.) during development from the bilaterally symmetrical larva to the bilaterally asymmetrical adult. On hatch...
