| The neuromasts of this canal are the only ones to be innervated by the otic branch of the facialis nerve, or by its superficial ophthalmic branch. |
| The ruffe also has an exceptional ability to detect water vibrations through organs called neuromasts. |
| The size and number of cranial neuromasts has increased, possibly to more effectively avoid obstacles while swimming in darkness. |
| The neuromasts in the sacculus are apparently oriented oppositely from those in the utriculus. |
| The lateral line system of fishes and many amphibians comprises lines of mechanoreceptive neuromasts distributed over the head and trunk. |
