  • Title: [Experimental study on the sensory capabilities of coral-reef fish larvae for the recognition of their settlement location].
    Author: Lecchini D.
    Journal: C R Biol; 2004 Feb; 327(2):159-71. PubMed ID: 15060987.
    Abstract:
    Some experiments in aquarium and in situ have been carried out to investigate the sensory abilities of coral reef fish larvae in the recognition of their settlement location. Ten out 12 species studied detected their settlement location due to the presence of conspecifics and not by habitat characteristics. Larvae use three senses in this detection: sight, smell and vibratory sense.
