The adaptability of the taste system in fish has led to a large variety in taste bud morphology,
abundance and distribution, as well as in taste physiology characteristics in closely related …

Conventional approaches to studying fish kinematics pose a great challenge for the real‐
time monitoring of fish motion kinematics. Here, a multifunctional fish‐wearable data …

The ability of fish to evade predators is central to the ecology and evolution of a diversity of
species. However, it is largely unclear how prey fish detect predators in order to initiate their …

Measurements of whole-organism performance traits have been useful in studies of
adaptation and phenotype–environment correlations. Bite force capacities may be tightly …

Ram feeding is the process by which a predatory fish uses a high-velocity lunge or chase to
overtake its prey. This study compares the strike and prey capture behaviors and kinematics …

The family Centrarchidae (Order: Perciformes) is one of the most diverse, widespread, and
conspicuous fish families native to freshwater habitats of North America. Among endemic …

Locomotion is an integral aspect of the prey capture strategy of almost every predatory
animal. For fishes that employ suction to draw prey into their mouths, locomotor movements …

Inertial suction feeding is known to occur in some sharks, but the sequence and temporal
kinematics of head and jaw movements have not been defined. We investigated the feeding …

It is well established that suction feeding fish use a variable amount of swimming (ram)
during prey capture. However, the fluid mechanical effects of ram on suction feeding are not …

Most predators rely on capturing prey for survival, yet failure is common. Failure is often
attributed to prey evasion, but predator miscalculation and/or inaccuracy may also drive an …
