Investigating the behavioral responses of nektonic and benthic tadpoles elicited by the presence of a predatory nektonic fish

open access: yesJournal of Zoology, Volume 326, Issue 3, Page 268-276, July 2025.
Different defensive strategies are used by tadpoles to avoid or escape from predators, and it is possible that differences in the microhabitat of prey and predators influence the defensive strategies used by tadpoles. Therefore, we experimentally tested whether the presence of a nektonic fish predator (Oreochromis niloticus) reduces the time of ...
