Text: "Peter Moller explores the murky world of electric fish." Discusses two classes of electric fishes--strongly electric and weakly electric. Strongly electric fishes produce powerful jolts of up to 500 volts, while weakly electric fishes produce delicate fields of a fraction of a volt. Much information of the weakly electric African elephant-trunk fishes (mormyrids). Science Digest. May 1984. p.17.
