Abstract

In a total of 29 tench (Tinca tinca L., Cyprinidae, Ostariophysi, Pisces) we operatively impaired either 1 or 2 of the 3 nerve bundles of both tractus olfactorii. Through behavioral experiments, using the fright reaction as a test, we found out which nerve bundle of the tractus olfactorius conducts the excitation elicited by the alarm substance. According to the results the conducting bundles are exclusively the lateral bundles in both tractus olfactorii.
