Escape responses of fish: a review of the diversity in motor control, kinematics and behaviour
P Domenici, ME Hale - Journal of Experimental Biology, 2019 - journals.biologists.com
The study of fish escape responses has provided important insights into the accelerative
motions and fast response times of these animals. In addition, the accessibility of the …

Behavioural measures determine survivorship within the hierarchy of whole‐organism phenotypic traits
Mortality through predation is often selective, particularly at life‐history bottlenecks. While
many studies have looked at the importance for survival of specific prey characteristics in …

The interplay between aerobic metabolism and antipredator performance: vigilance is related to recovery rate after exercise
When attacked by a predator, fish respond with a sudden fast-start motion away from the
threat. Although this anaerobically-powered swimming necessitates a recovery phase which …

Social familiarity improves fast-start escape performance in schooling fish
Using social groups (ie schools) of the tropical damselfish Chromis viridis, we test how
familiarity through repeated social interactions influences fast-start responses, the primary …

The influence of structural complexity and reef habitat types on flight initiation distance and escape behaviors in labrid fishes
Structural complexity is a key parameter for fish on reef habitats. Several studies have
investigated the influence of this variable on aspects of reef fish population and community …

Speedy revelations: how alarm calls can convey rapid, reliable information about urgent danger
JR McLachlan, RD Magrath - Proceedings of the …, 2020 - royalsocietypublishing.org
In the perpetual struggle between high-speed predators and their prey, individuals need to
react in the blink of an eye to avoid capture. Alarm calls that warn of danger therefore need …

Alternative forms of axial startle behaviors in fishes
YC Liu, ME Hale - Zoology, 2014 - Elsevier
For most aquatic vertebrates, axial movements play key roles in the performance of startle
responses. In fishes, these axis-based startle behaviors fall into three distinct categories–the …

Flowing water affects fish fast-starts: escape performance of the Hawaiian stream goby, Sicyopterus stimpsoni
KM Diamond, HL Schoenfuss… - Journal of …, 2016 - journals.biologists.com
Experimental measurements of escape performance in fishes have typically been conducted
in still water; however, many fishes inhabit environments with flow that could impact escape …

Stable isotopes and foraging behaviors support the role of antipredator benefits in driving the association between two marine fishes
Research from terrestrial communities shows that diminished predation risk is a principal
driver of heterospecific grouping behavior, with foraging ecology predicting the roles that …
