The lateral line system and its innervation were examined in two species of the family Apogonidae (Cercamia eremia[Apogoninae] andPseudamia gelatinosa[Pseudamiinae]). Both species were characterized by numerous superficial neuromasts (SNs; total 2,717 inC. eremia; 9,650 inP. gelatinosa), including rows on the dorsal and ventral halves of the trunk, associated with one (inC. eremia) and three (inP. gelatinosa) reduced trunk canals. The pattern of SN innervation clearly demonstrated that the overall pattern of SN distribution had evolved convergently in the two species. InC. eremia, SN rows over the entire trunk were innervated by elongated branches of the dorsal longitudinal collector nerve (DLCN) anteriorly and lateral ramus posteriorly. InP. gelatinosa, the innervation pattern of the DLCN was mirrored on the ventral half of the trunk (ventral longitudinal collector nerve: VLCN). Elongated branches of the DLCN and VLCN innervated SN rows on the dorsal and ventral halves of the trunk, respectively. The reduced trunk canal(s) apparently had no direct relationship with the increase of SNs, because these branches originated deep to the lateral line scales, none innervating canal neuromast (CN) homologues on the surface of the scales. InP. gelatinosa, a CN (or an SN row: CN homologue) occurred on every other one of their small lateral line scales, while congeners (P. hayashiiandP. zonata) had an SN row (CN homologue) on every one of their large lateral line scales.
