Hydrodynamics of the escape response in bluegill sunfish, Lepomis macrochirus
... The escape response (also called a C-start, fast-start or Mauthner startle response) of fishes is perhaps the best-studied behavior in vertebrates and has been analyzed from a broad array of ...

Visuo motor transformations involved in the escape response to looming stimuli in the crab Neohelice (=Chasmagnathus) granulata
... perform escape responses are enormous, raising the question of whether common sensory-motor transformation rules are exploited in species with similar sensory processing ...

Role of the lateral line mechanosensory system in directionality of goldfish auditory evoked escape response
... A striking feature of the escape response is that the directionality is reversed if the fish is close to a physical barrier (Eaton and Emberley, 1991). This is an indication that the M-cell may process ...

Behavioural and kinematic components of the fast start escape response in fish: individual variation and temporal repeatability
... Individual variation in performance in fish may determine individual survival (Walker et al., 2005), so if the fast start is important for escaping predators, it is surprising that selection has not maximized performance ...

Interspecific differences in how habitat degradation affects escape response
... has shown that they are also important in that, at least for some species (e.g., Ambon and white-tail damselfish), they play an important role in forewarning species of nearby threats thereby allowing individuals to ...

Lionfish misidentification circumvents an optimised escape response by prey
... fast-start response was a largely autonomic response, with performance maximized by strong predator selection and little variation within individuals (Eaton and Hackett, 1984; Langerhans et ...that ...

The C start escape response of Polypterus senegalus: bilateral muscle activity and variation during stage 1 and 2
... With such strong bilateral activity, it is somewhat surprising that P. senegalus performs a true C-start. Several previous studies have found that bilateral activity in some elongate fishes causes a head-retraction ...

Three dimensional analysis of the fast start escape response of the least killifish, Heterandria formosa
... To produce 3D motion, 3D forces and moments need to be produced. This is interesting from both a motor control and fluid mechanics point of view, as it requires breaking of dorsoventral symmetry. One mechanism to reach ...

Mobilization of a Coordinated Escape Response by Giant Axons in the Ophiuroid, Ophiopteris Papillosa
... Giant fibres involved in this fast electrical transmission appear to be of type 1 as described by Tuft & Gilly 1984.. This identification is based on their low threshold, high conduction[r] ...

How stimulus direction determines the trajectory of the Mauthner initiated escape response in a teleost fish
... Correspondingly, by being most activated by stimuli from in front, the brainstem escape network triggers large stage 1 angles for large turns that reverse the initial direction of the fi[r] ...

The Kinematics and Performance of the Escape Response in the Angelfish (Pterophyllum Eimekei)
... Since SB responses show neither a clear return flip nor a body bend in the opposite direction to that of the initial one, it is not surprising that velocity and acceleration profiles dif[r] ...

Behavioral Analysis of the Escape Response in the Juvenile Lobster Homarus Americanus Over the Molt Cycle
... In contrast to post-molt animals, hard-shelled, premolt lobsters, which are more likely to respond to threats with a meral spread rather than escape swimming Tamm and Cobb, 1978, have a [r] ...
