Perceiving the algae: How feeding-current feeding copepods detect their nonmotile prey
(American Society of Limnology and Oceanography, 2015-03)
Feeding-current feeding copepods detect and capture prey individually, but the mechanism by which nonmotile prey is detected has been unclear. Early reports that copepods detect phytoplankton prey at distances of one body ...
Mechanisms of prey size selecon in a suspension feeding copepod, Temora longicornis
(Inter-research, 2014-12-15)
We examined size-dependent prey detection and prey capture in free-swimming Temora longicornis using video observations, particle image velocimetry (PIV), and bottle incubations with phytoplankton prey sizes within the ...
Reply to comment: Prey perception in feeding-current feeding copepods
(Amer Soc Limnology Oceanography, 2016-07)
We reply to the comments of Paffenhöfer and Jiang (2016) who argues that remote chemical prey perception is necessary for feeding‐current feeding copepods to fulfill their nutritional requirements in a dilute ocean, that ...
Chemical recognition in a snake-lizard predator-prey system
(Springer, 2015)
In a predator-prey interaction, the fitnesses of the predator and the prey depend on their abilities to recognize each other, a process that may involve different sensory modalities. Squamate reptiles are highly dependent ...
The effectiveness of post-contact defenses in a prey with no pre-contact detection
(Urban und Fischer VerlagJena, 2013-06)
Most empirical and theoretical papers on prey–predator interactions are for animals with long-range detection, animals that can detect and react to predators long before these touch the prey. Heavy-bodied and chemically ...
The peculiar case of an insectivorous iguanid lizard that detects chemical cues from prey
(2007)
Ecological and phylogenetic factors determine which sensory modalities organisms use in their day-to-day activities. Among lizards, empirical studies indicate a tight association between foraging strategies and the ability ...
Black sea urchins evaluate predation risk using chemical signals from a predator and injured con- and heterospecific prey
(Inter-research, 2011-01-01)
The traits related to foraging and eating are crucial to our understanding of food webs. The use of signals to detect predators has strong relevance for prey survival. The black sea urchin Echinometra lucunter cohabits ...
