Pinnipeds, that is true seals (Phocidae), eared seals (Otariidae), and walruses
(Odobenidae), possess highly developed vibrissal systems for mechanoreception. They can …

The Norway lobster is one of the most important commercial crustaceans in Europe. A
detailed knowledge of the behaviour of this species is crucial in order to optimize fishery …

We compared the dietary composition, feeding preferences, and food selection of the introd
crayfish, Procambarus clarkii in a natural and a transformed freshwater marsh (rice field) in …

Within laboratory–induced swarms of the marine copepod Temora longicornis, the male
exhibits chemically mediated trail–following behaviour, concluding with fluid mechanical …

Tail-flip escape trajectories of the brown shrimp Crangon crangon have been investigated in
response to a natural predator, the cod Gadus morhua, and an artificial stimulus. Shrimps …

1. The caudal photoreceptor (CPR) interneurons in the sixth abdominal ganglion of the
crayfish are complex, multi-modal interneurons. These cells respond directly to light with …

Benthic crustaceans rely on chemical stimuli to mediate a diversity of behaviors ranging from
food localization and predator avoidance to den selection, conspecific interactions and …

The late embryonic and early post‐embryonic life period of freshwater crayfish, which is the
main time period of organogenesis, is poorly investigated because of the protective …

Fluid dynamics has been shown to alter ecologically important behaviors of aquatic
organisms orienting to distant chemical sources. Because the fluid dynamics and chemical …
