猪内脏放电(EOD)为脉冲型。EOD间隔的模式进行了调查之前,期间和之后的产卵行为与公开的行为,并与筑巢男性的声音生产。之前的时间的繁殖,孤立和社会互动的鱼(n = 15)表现出特征放电间隔模式休息,游泳,探测,盘旋和隐藏活动。男性(n = 8)和女性(n = 6)在休息期间的平均EOD重复率没有差异(11.6 ± 1.5)。2.5 Hz),也不是短脉冲串/分钟(少于20个8-13 ms的间隔)。在相互作用的鱼长脉冲串(大于20个8-13毫秒的间隔,持续超过300毫秒),观察到只有在攻击和咬序列。一个追求的鱼表现出快速交替的长爆发放电中断(300-1000毫秒的沉默)在追逐行为。夜间求偶行为在天黑后不久(1900 h)开始。产卵通常在天黑后2至5小时开始,持续2至6小时,直到大约0200小时。在求偶和产卵期间,雌性每隔30-60秒就会对雄性领地进行一次短暂的访问(15-25秒)。在所有其他时间,女性积极排除在巢穴区域。求偶和产卵行为描述沿着与电显示器确定从19产卵在三个鱼对(共37产卵4男4女)。
P. isidori''s electric organ discharge (EOD) is of the pulse type. Patterns of EOD intervals were investigated prior to, during and following spawning behaviors as related with overt behaviors, and with the sound production by the nestbuilding male. Prior to the time of reproduction, isolated and socially interacting fish (n = 15) showed characteristic discharge interval patterns for resting, swimming, probing, hovering and hiding activities. Males (n = 8) and females (n = 6) did not differ in the mean EOD repetition rates during resting (11.6 .+-. 2.5 Hz), nor Short Bursts/min (less than 20 intervals of 8-13 ms). In interacting fish Long Bursts (greater than 20 intervals of 8-13 ms, lasting for more than 300 ms) were observed only during the attack and bite sequence. A pursuing fish displayed a rapid alternation of Long Bursts with Discharge Breaks (300-1000 ms silence) during the chase behavior. The nocturnal courtship behavior began soon after dark (1900 h). Spawning typically started 2 to 5 h after dark, continuing for 2 to 6 h until about 0200 h. During courtship and spawning the female''s brief visits (15-25 s) to the male''s territory recurred every 30-60 s. At all other times the female was aggressively excluded from the nest region. Courtship and spawning behaviors are described along with the electrical displays identified from 19 spawnings in three fish pairs (from a total of 37 spawnings in 4 males and 4 females).
