Abstract
The contention is made that, despite the conclusion of Dijkgraaf, the lateralis system of fish should be considered a vibration receptor. Evidence from electrophysiological experiments is presented, showing that for the species used the system is sensitive to very small amplitudes of water vibration at low frequencies.Keywords
