...…first discussed as an intrinsic potential by Watanabe (1958) in lobster CG, and further described in studies of the Squilla (stomatopod) CG (Watanabe et al., 1967a, b), driver potentials are relatively slow, sustained, regenerative depolarizations that may arise from a gradual pacemaker…...

...The electrotonic isolation of the parallel axons from the soma is consistent with the histological finding (Watanabe et al., 1967), which indicates that the proximal part of the axon does not form side-junctions with the parallel axons....
