The olfactory system in any animal is the primary sensory system that responds to chemical
stimuli emanating from a distant source. In aquatic animals “Odours” are molecules in …

Gastropod diversity is substantial in marine and freshwater habitats, and many aquatic slugs
and snails use olfactory cues to guide their navigation behaviour. Examples include finding …

Different animals have distinctive anatomical and physiological properties to their chemical
senses that enhance detection and discrimination of relevant chemical cues. Humans and …

Gastropod molluscs, such as Aplysia, Lymnaea, and Tritonia have been important for
determining fundamental rules of motor control and learning and memory because they …

Hermissenda crassicornis is a model for studying the molecular and cellular basis for
classical conditioning, based on its ability to associate light with vestibular stimulation. We …

Cephalopods are nontraditional but captivating models of invertebrate neurobiology,
particularly in evolutionary comparisons. Cephalopod olfactory systems have striking …

Tritonia diomedea (synonymous with Tritonia tetraquetra) navigates in turbulent odour
plumes, crawling upstream towards prey and downstream to avoid predators. This is …

Dispersal success in animals depends in part on their perceptual range, ie, the distance
from which they can acquire information about their environment. We studied how the …

Olfaction, a chemosensory modality, plays a pivotal role in the orientation and behavior of
invertebrates. The central olfactory processing unit in terrestrial stylomatophoran snails is …
