  • (2) The threshold of both filament-related and gill raker mechanoreceptors was relatively high.
  • (3) The basal lamina exhibits a smooth contour over most of the gill surface with the exception of the short gill rakers where it formed cones within the taste bud cores, and on the respiratory lamellae where it closely mimicked the underlying capillary network.

  • (7) 2 generally prefers relatively flat surfaces in the gill chamber but is more versatile in its choice of attachment sites on its host, the blacktip cod, Epinephelus fasciatus; two specimens were attached to the gill arch, one to a gill raker and one to the dorsal pharyngeal tooth pad.

  • (12) Deflection of gill rakers also elicited a brief response in epibranchial ganglion neurons.
  • (13) The map of the oropharyngeal epithelium is distorted so that the gill arches are rotated through an angle of 90 degrees along the transverse plane, and the dorsally mapped region of the gill rakers is tilted posteriorly in the sagittal plane of the vagal lobe.
