prey capture

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Oxygen consumption of drift-feeding rainbow trout: the energetic tradeoff between locomotion and feeding in flow
    Jacob L. Johansen, Otar Akanyeti, James C. Liao
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2020 223: jeb220962 doi: 10.1242/jeb.220962 Published 26 June 2020

    Editors' Choice: Drift-feeding rainbow trout choose between swimming and refuging depending on the cost and success rate of prey capture across flow velocities.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Angling-induced injuries have a negative impact on suction feeding performance and hydrodynamics in marine shiner perch, Cymatogaster aggregata
    Melissa Thompson, Sam Van Wassenbergh, Sean M. Rogers, Scott G. Seamone, Timothy E. Higham
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2018 221: jeb180935 doi: 10.1242/jeb.180935 Published 9 October 2018

    Summary: Injuries to the mouth caused by fishing hooks reduce suction feeding performance in marine surfperch by altering the flow of water into the mouth during suction.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Comparative feeding strategies and kinematics in phocid seals: suction without specialized skull morphology
    Sarah S. Kienle, Holly Hermann-Sorensen, Daniel P. Costa, Colleen Reichmuth, Rita S. Mehta
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2018 221: jeb179424 doi: 10.1242/jeb.179424 Published 6 August 2018

    Summary: Behavioral and kinematic differences exist between suction feeding and biting in seals. Suction feeding is common in seals and can occur without specialized skull morphology.

  • REVIEW
    Tuning orb spider glycoprotein glue performance to habitat humidity
    Brent D. Opell, Dharamdeep Jain, Ali Dhinojwala, Todd A. Blackledge
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2018 221: jeb161539 doi: 10.1242/jeb.161539 Published 26 March 2018

    Summary: Viscous capture thread extends an orb spider's phenotype as a highly integrated complex of large proteins and small molecules that function as a self-assembling, highly tuned, environmentally responsive, adhesive biomaterial.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Hunting with sticky tape: functional shift in silk glands of araneophagous ground spiders (Gnaphosidae)
    Jonas O. Wolff, Milan Řezáč, Tomáš Krejčí, Stanislav N. Gorb
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2017 220: 2250-2259; doi: 10.1242/jeb.154682

    Editors’ Choice: Gnaphosid spiders utilize sticky, extensible piriform silk to subdue hazardous prey. This derived use of attachment silk comes with strong modifications of the spinning apparatus and reduces the ability to attach structural silk threads.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Archer fish jumping prey capture: kinematics and hydrodynamics
    Anna M. Shih, Leah Mendelson, Alexandra H. Techet
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2017 220: 1411-1422; doi: 10.1242/jeb.145623

    Highlighted Article: Archer fish are unique aquatic predators capable of jumping multiple body lengths straight up out of the water using oscillatory caudal fin kinematics, in concert with other fins, for propulsion and stabilization.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Patterns of variation in feeding strike kinematics of juvenile ghost praying mantis (Phyllocrania paradoxa): are components of the strike stereotypic?
    Christopher E. Oufiero, Tammy Nguyen, Annie Sragner, Angelah Ellis
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2016 219: 2733-2742; doi: 10.1242/jeb.139675

    Summary: Praying mantises modulate stereotypic components of their feeding strike through the flexibility in the coxa–prothorax joint and amount of lunge from the mesothoracic and metathoracic legs.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Body ram, not suction, is the primary axis of suction-feeding diversity in spiny-rayed fishes
    Sarah J. Longo, Matthew D. McGee, Christopher E. Oufiero, Thomas B. Waltzek, Peter C. Wainwright
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2016 219: 119-128; doi: 10.1242/jeb.129015

    Summary: Acanthomorph fishes exhibit a large diversity of suction-feeding behaviors, which is driven by variation in the contribution of body ram. Suction distances are constrained even at broad evolutionary scales.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Single-click beam patterns suggest dynamic changes to the field of view of echolocating Atlantic spotted dolphins (Stenella frontalis) in the wild
    Frants H. Jensen, Magnus Wahlberg, Kristian Beedholm, Mark Johnson, Natacha Aguilar de Soto, Peter T. Madsen
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2015 218: 1314-1324; doi: 10.1242/jeb.116285

    Summary: Free-ranging Atlantic spotted dolphins dynamically adjust their sonar beam width to expand their acoustic field of view when approaching targets, potentially decreasing the risk of prey evasion.

  • SHORT COMMUNICATIONS
    Buzzing during biosonar-based interception of prey in the delphinids Tursiops truncatus and Pseudorca crassidens
    Danuta M. Wisniewska, Mark Johnson, Paul E. Nachtigall, Peter T. Madsen
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2014 217: 4279-4282; doi: 10.1242/jeb.113415
