Abstract
We studied synchronization of electrosensitive cells of the paddlefish by m eans of electrophysiological experiments. We found that primary afferents o f the paddlefish are represented by noisy nonlinear oscillators. Different types of phase locked regimes are observed. The influence of internal noise is discussed.
