Although the behavioral repertoire of crustaceans is largely guided by visual information
their visual nervous system has been little explored. In search for central mechanisms of …

Decapod crustaceans, in particular semiterrestrial crabs, are highly visual animals that
greatly rely on visual information. Their responsiveness to visual moving stimuli, with …

Comparative physiology of visual systems has become an important field of investigation.
However, despite the fact that Crustacea represents a major phylogenetic group, research …

Over the past few years, there have been many notable advances in our understanding of
crustacean visual systems. These advances have added to our knowledge of optical …

There is a mismatch between the documentation of the visually guided behaviors and visual
physiology of decapods (Malacostraca, Crustacea) and knowledge about the neural …

The Decapoda is the largest order of crustaceans, some 10,000 species having been
described to date. The order includes shrimps, lobsters, crayfishes, and crabs. Most of these …

Animals use binocular information to guide many behaviors. In highly visual arthropods,
complex binocular computations involved in processing panoramic optic flow generated …

4. The same excitatory effect, ie, increased frequency of EPSPs received by type B cells, was
also found to follow impulse trains of specific ipsilateral hair cells. 5. Presynaptic control of …

Crustaceans are widely distributed and inhabit very different niches. Many of them are highly
visual animals. Nevertheless, the neural composition of crustacean optic neuropils deeper …

Stomatopods have an extraordinary visual system, incorporating independent movement of
their eyes in all three degrees of rotational freedom. In this work, we demonstrate that in the …
