Responses of American toad tadpoles to predation cues: behavioural response thresholds, threat-sensitivity and acquired predation recognition (2006, unknown): “Likewise, this mode of learning has been documented in planaria (Wisenden & Millard, 2001), damselflies (Wisenden et al., 1997), snails (Rochette, 1998), crayfish (Hazlett, 2003) and one species of caudate amphibians, the central newts, Notophthalmus viridescens (Woody & Mathis, 1998).”
Threat-sensitive generalization of predator recognition by larval amphibians (2009, unknown): “For aquatic prey, a widespread mode of learning is through the pairing of injured conspecific cues with the odor or sight of a novel predator (e.g., larval amphibians—Woody and Mathis 1998, Mirza et al. 2006; fishes—Mathis and Smith 1993; aquatic invertebrates— Wisenden and Millard 2001, Hazlett 20”
Antipredator responses of wolf spiders (Araneae: Lycosidae) to sensory cues representing an avian predator (2009, background): “…also been shown to respond to predator chemical cues, shadows and near-field disturbance vibration with antipredator behaviour, including flatworms (Wisenden & Millard 2001), gastropods (Phillips 1977; Dix & Hamilton 1993; Turner 2008), crayfish (Tomba et al. 2001) and echinoderms (Scheibling &…”
Learning, memory and predator avoidance by freshwater snails: effects of experience on predator recognition and defensive strategy (2006, background): “…Mississippi, Ocean Springs, MS 39564, U.S.A. 1 0003e3472/06/$30.00/0 2006 The Association for the recent studies suggest that the predator avoidance repertoire of invertebrates may also depend on experience (Chivers et al. 1996; Rochette et al. 1998; Hazlett & McLay 2000; Wisenden & Millard 2001).”
The role of learning in the development of threat-sensitive predator avoidance by fathead minnows (2005, background): “Chemical alarm cues are known to be important in facilitating learned recognition of predators in a variety of prey (flatworms: Wisenden & Millard 2001; snails: Rochette et al. 1998; amphibians: Woody & Mathis 1998).”
