Most physiological and behavioral studies of the Mauthner cells have used the goldfish and a few other fish from the superorder Ostariophysi, series Otophysi (= otophysans). We first provide some background and recent findings on the Mauthner cells of otophysan fish and then compare this information to that known about the Mauthner cells in certain non-otophysan fish. These comparisons are meant to provide the impetus for a comparative approach to understanding the role of the Mauthner cells in behavior.
大多数关于Mauthner细胞的生理和行为研究都使用了金鱼以及骨鳔总目鲤形系（=骨鳔类）的其他几种鱼类。我们首先介绍一些关于骨鳔类鱼类Mauthner细胞的背景和最新研究结果，然后将这些信息与某些非骨鳔类鱼类中已知的Mauthner细胞信息进行比较。这些比较旨在为采用比较方法理解Mauthner细胞在行为中的作用提供动力。
