... basis for this underappreciated behavior of larval fish. A strong candidate is the mechanosensory lateral line, a hair cell-based sensory system that detects hydrodynamic information from sources like water currents, predators, prey, and surface waves. However, a role for the lateral line in mediating...

... the animal often must. One way that nervous systems can solve this problem is to provide movement-related signals (copies of motor commands and sensory feedback) to sensory systems, which can then be used to generate predictions that oppose or cancel out sensory responses to reafference. Here, we studied...

... and the opportunity to investigate pure stimulus frequencies, breathing currents presented to naturally behaving animals are representative of stimuli in the natural habitat, and the performance of the sensory system under these conditions gives insight into the performance of the sensory system in the wild. To gain...

...A. R. Wark; C. L. Peichel SUMMARY The lateral line is a mechanoreceptive sensory system that allows fish to sense objects and motion in their local environment. Variation in lateral line morphology may allow fish in different habitats to differentially sense and respond to salient cues. Threespine...
