In eels, abductor muscles are recognized as the musculus masseter, m.abductor operculi anterior and m.abductor operculi posterior. The adductors are the m.adductor operculi and m.adductor radii branchiostegi. The former is innervated by each branch of the ramus maxillaris and r.facialis of the nervus trigeminus. The latter receives the r.facialis and r.hyoideus of the n.trigeminus. Respected muscles directly concerning with the unilateral opercular movement seem to be the adductors as the m.adductor operculi and m.adductor radii, and the medulla oblongata which is considered to be their primary nervous center participates probably its execution with the supposed especial function of the respiratory center.}, pages = {103--111}, title = {Anatomy on the Opercular System of the Eel, Anguilla japonica}, volume = {31}, year = {} }
