Fig. 8. Model fits for the position of the dummy relative to the burrow and the
crab at the time of response for a crab-burrow distance of (A) 15 cm and (B)
25 cm. The fits are made for all dummy approach directions (track angles) and
crab side values (see Fig. 1C)
used in the model (Hemmi and Zeil,
2003a). For each track angle/crab side combination, we plotted the
dummy's trajectory as a solid line from a distance of 50 cm to the burrow
until the crab reacted (dot). For example, the black line at the top of A,
just above and slightly to the left of the crab symbol, shows the approach
path of a dummy for a track angle of 10° (0-20° track-angle bin) at
the median track distance of 10 cm and a crab-side value of one. The crab
initiates the reaction when the dummy reaches the black dot at the end of the
line. The radius of the solid circle equals the fitted mean of all response
distances ±2 S.E.M. (dotted circles). (C) and (D) show the
same data in retinal coordinates as seen by the crab. The continuous and
dotted lines in C and D are the projection of the mean response distances
±2 S.E.M. (circles in A and B).
