Abstract
Hearing evolved in lampreys with a frequency range of 50–200 Hz. This hearing range is comparable to that of elasmobranchs, most non-teleosts, and lungfish. Elasmobranchs most likely use the saccule and the papilla neglecta (PN) for hearing. In non-teleosts and teleosts, lungfish, and certain tetrapods the saccule is the likely sensor for sound reception while the lagena and the PN are important for gravistatic sensing. Coelacanth and most tetrapods have a basilar papilla (BP) for hearing. In coelacanth and tetrapods, the hair cells of the BP are in contact with a basilar and a tectorial membrane. These membranes transmit mechanical vibrations. A cochlear aqueduct (CA) provides a connection between the cerebrospinal fluid that has a sodium rich space in coelacanth and tetrapods while the potassium rich endolymph is known in vertebrates. A unique feature is known in basic sarcopterygians, the intracranial joint, that never developed in actinopterygians and has been lost in lungfish and tetrapods. The BP in coelacanths is thought to generate pressure with the intracranial joint that will be transmitted to the CA. Lungs or a swim bladder are not forming in Chondrichthyes, structures that have a major impact on hearing in teleosts and tetrapods.
