Abstract:
We present a new molecular phylogeny for 41 species of African mormyroid electric fishes derived from the 12S, 16S and cytochrome b genes and the nuclear RAG2 gene. From this, we reconstruct the evolution of the complex electric organs of these fishes. Phylogenetic results are generally concordant with earlier preliminary molecular studies of a smaller group of species and with the osteology-based classification of Taverne, which divides the group into the Gymnarchidae and the Mormyridae, with the latter including the subfamilies Petrocephalinae (Petrocephalus) and Mormyrinae (all remaining ta

Abstract:
We use mitochondrial and nuclear sequence data to show that three weakly electric mormyrid fish specimens collected at three widely separated localities in Gabon, Africa over a 13-year period represent an unrecognized lineage within the subfamily Mormyrinae and determine its phylogenetic position with respect to other taxa. We describe these three specimens as a new genus containing two new species. Cryptomyrus, new genus, is readily distinguished from all other mormyrid genera by a combination of features of squamation, morphometrics, and dental attributes. Cryptomyrus ogoouensis, new species

Abstract:
Here we examine new collections of Petrocephalus species (Osteoglossomorpha: Mormyridae: Petrocephalinae) made within Odzala National Park in the Republic of the Congo (Lékoli River drainage, northwestern Congo River basin). We compare these collections to type material of all nominal Petrocephalus species described from the Congo basin and the adjacent Lower Guinea ichthyofaunal province. Based on morphology and electric signal characteristics we recognize eleven distinct species of Petrocephalus in these collections, including five new species described herein: Petrocephalus binotatus, Petro

Abstract:
The study determined the physical and nutritional losses caused by pests on selected smoked fish families in 3 agricultural zones of Benue state. The selected fish families were Clariidae, Protopteridae, Characidae and Mormyridae and were weighed before and after 3 months storage at the end of each quarter of the year for 2 years and were subjected to proximate analysis. In zone A, Claridae, Protopteridae, Characidae and mormyridae had weight loss of 39.00%, 32.00%, 22.00% and 15.00% respectively. In zone B Clariidae, Protopteridae, Characidae and mormyridae had 43.00, 35.50, 23.50 and 18.00%

Abstract:
Les mormyres, poissons des eaux douces africaines, emettent en permanence des impulsions de quelques volts ayant un role d'electrolocalisation et d'electrocommunication. Ces impulsions, de forme et d'intensite constantes pour un individu donne, sont emises a des intervalles de temps (intervalles inter-impulsions) tres variables. Deux parametres ont ete utilises pour caracteriser ces rythmes de decharge : le nombre d'impulsions par seconde (cadence de decharge) et leur organisation temporelle. La nature, les causes, et les fonctions de la variabilite de ces rythmes font l'objet de notre etude.

Abstract:
The histopathological effects of three heavy metals, cyanide and atrazine on the gill tissues of the mormyrid fish, Gnathonemus petersii, were determined primarily by electron microscopy. Replicate samples of fish were exposed for 6 hours to acute and subacute concentrations of each toxicant in a continuous flow system comprising aerated, dechlorinated and heated water. Specific alterations to gill ultrastructure were found to be associated with each toxicant. Cadmium damage at 1.0 mg 1.1 was associated with the formation of large subepithelial spaces within the secondary lamellae and at 10.0

Abstract:
Electroreception is a sensory modality found in some fish, which enables them to sense the environment through the detection of electric fields. Biological experimentation on this ability has built an intricate framework that has identified many of the components involved in electroreception's production, but lack the framework for bringing the details back together into a system-level model of how they operate together. This thesis builds and tests a computational model of the Electrosensory Lateral Line Lobe (ELL) in mormyrid electric fish in an attempt to bring some of electroreception's st

The astounding capacity for learning ranks among the nervous system’s most impressive features. This thesis comprises studies employing varied approaches to improve understanding, at the level of neural circuits, of the brain’s capacity for learning. The first part of the thesis contains investigations of hippocampal circuitry – both theoretical work and experimental work in the mouse Mus musculus – as a model system for declarative memory. To begin, Chapter 2 presents a theory of hippocampal memory storage and retrieval that reflects nonlinear dendritic processing within hippocampal pyr

Abstract:
Simple circuits perform simple tasks. Complex circuits can perform more complicated tasks. This is true for artificial circuits and for brain circuits. As is known from artificial networks, a complexity that makes circuits substantially more powerful is distributing learning across multiple layers. In fact, most brain circuits in vertebrate systems are multi-layer circuits (but for few that perform simple reflexes) in which learning is distributed across layers. Despite the crucial contribution of learning in middle layer neurons to the output of the circuits they are embedded in, there is lit

Abstract:
Underwater navigation in turbid water for exploration in catastrophic conditions or navigation in confined unstructured environments is still a challenge for robotics. In these conditions, neither vision nor sonar can be used. Pursuing a bio-inspired approach in robotics, one can seek solutions in nature to solve this difficult problem. Several hundred fish species in families Gymnotidae and Mormyridae have developed an original sense well adapted to this situation: the electric sense. Gnathonemus petersii first polarizes its body with respect to an electric organ discharge located at the base
