fishes have a lateral line, a system of mechanoreceptors that detect water movements. In bony fishes, the scales along the lateral line have central pores...

Head and lateral line erosion, (HLLE) or hole-in-the-head (HITH) is a disease in fish. Chronic ulcerative dermatopathy or chronic erosive dermatopathy...

The lateral line is a line running along each side of the fish from the gill covers to the base of the tail. In laboratory experiments the lateral lines...
