Experience influences settling behaviour in desert isopods, Hemilepistus reaumuri
Article Abstract:
The use of experience in habitat selection during natal dispersal in Hemilepistus reaumuri, a monogamous, semelparous desert isopod is examined. Isopods were held in outdoor pens for 7-day priming treatments, then moved to new pens and tested for settling 4 days later and it is concluded that the use of experience to regulate settling may affect the population dispersal response to habital change.
