Book synopsis

This book deals with vision and visually guided behavior in salamanders, with special emphasis on feeding behavior. The underlying neural mechanisms, functional morphology, as well as ecological and evolutionary aspects of salamander behavior are studied. The extensive data comprises experiments on visually guided behavior, the influence of learning and imprinting on feeding behavior, the anatomy of the salamander eye and brain, and the morphology and development of the visual and visiomotor centers. This book also presents mechanisms and models of processing visual information within the salamander eye and brain, of object recognition, depth perception and sensory-motor interface problems in amphibians. This book will be invaluable to all scientists working on visually guided behavior, amphibian neurophysiology and ecologically induced behavior.
