    Journal: Gegenbaurs Morphol Jahrb; 1989; 135(4):567-72. PubMed ID: 2591697.
    Abstract:
    The respiratory organ of Electrophorus electricus is located in the oral cavity and is formed by papillar structures. The papilla consists basically of a cartilaginous central nucleus and is bounded by a connective layer. The results reveal structural adaptations for the respiration among fishes which have efficient respiratory circulation related with the venous blood.
