Researches on the Discharge of the Electric Organ.

C'0ivi08 on the ascending branch of the first. At last wlien the 

 interval between the two beconx'S 164x10"^ sec, the discharges 

 coalesce into a single one. Here since the position of the second 

 summit would be displaced on account of its lying on the inclined 

 branch of the hrst, we cannot measure tJie modal latent period 

 accurately and therefore we also measured the interval l)etween 

 the stimulus and the commencement of the curve. The next table 

 shows the numbers obtained on the oscillogram.
