...Paul W. Webb SUMMARY The kinematics of plaice ( Pleuronectes platessa, L =22.1 cm) and cod ( Gadus morhua, L =25.0 cm, where L is total fish length)swimming at various speeds at the bottom and lifted to heights, h , of 10, 50 and 100 mm by a thin-wire grid were measured. For cod, tailbeat frequency...

...R. S. BATTY; J. H. S. BLAXTER Newly hatched herring and plaice larvae were stimulated by probes to make C-start escape responses at temperatures between 5 and 15 °C. The responses and the subsequent burst-speed swimming were recorded and analysed using high-speed video at 400 frames s −1...
