Abstract
The auditory and electrosensory systems contain circuits that are specializ ed for the encoding and processing of microsecond time differences. Analysi s of these circuits in two specialists, weakly electric fish and barn owls, has uncovered common design principles and illuminated some aspects of the ir evolution.
