      Ghigliotti, Laura; Christiansen, Jørgen Schou; Carlig, Erica; Di Blasi, D; Pisano, Eva (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2020-12-18)
      The ice cod <i>Arctogadus glacialis</i> (Peters, 1872) is one of the few fish species endemic to the Arctic. With a circumpolar distribution, the species is confined to the fjords and shelves of the Arctic seas. Biological information on <i>A. glacialis</i> is scarce, with genomic information restricted to microsatellites. Within the frame of the TUNU-Programme: Arctic Ocean Fishes—Diversity, ...
    • Secondary Folds Contribute Significantly to the Total Surface Area in the Olfactory Organ of Chondrichthyes

      The olfactory organ of Chondrichthyes is characterized by a central support with several lamellae covered by a sensory olfactory epithelium. Although secondary folds are present on the lamellae in all the chondrichthyan species analyzed to date, their shape and size have not been described. We here analyze the olfactory organ of 13 elasmobranch and 1 holocephalan species, describe the shape of ...
