Qualitative and quantitative observations were made of the growth, distribution and density of external taste buds (TB) in the barbels of 2 phylogenetically close species of the Mullidae family (Perciformes: Teleostei) from the NW Mediterranean. Both species 11ve on the cont~nental shelf and have similar benthivorous feeding habits, but each prefers a different bottom habitat. Mullus surmuletus is typical of sandy and rocky bottoms, while Mullus barbatus is found over muddy bottoms and reaches to deeper waters than M surmuletus. The barbels of M, barbatus differ from those of M surmuletus in that they have a greater density and number of TBs, which are characteristically distnbuted in well-defined groups. These characteristics of A4 barbatus are associated with a greater sensitivity to chemical stimuli, as there is a compensatory relationship with the reduction of the visual field which occurs in muddy and deeper waters.
