Zusammenfassung
In freien Schallfeld wurde in einer Belohnungsdressur beim Kabeljau (Gadus morhua) akustische Lokalisation nachgewiesen. Die Entfernung des Fisches von der Schallquelle betrug 5,3 m (f=75 Hz). Ausschaltversuche zeigen, dass das Seitenorgansystem nicht wesentlich an der Schallrichtungsunterscheidung beteiligt ist.
