Species-specific behavioral patterns correlate with differences in synaptic connections between homologous mechanosensory neurons

We characterized the behavioral responses of two leech species, Hirudo verbana and Erpobdella obscura, to mechanical skin stimulation and examined the interactions between the pressure mechanosensory neurons (P cells) that innervate the skin. To quantify behavioral responses, we stimulated both inta...
