PMID: 28313211
Oecologia. 1991 Apr;86(2):276-286. doi: 10.1007/BF00317541.

We used an automated technique for the observation and quantification of zooplankton swimming behavior to study the behavioral responses of two congeneric, herbivorous, freshwater copepod prey to a copepod predator (Limnocalanus macrurus). One prey, Diaptomus sicilis, often co-occurs with...
