Integrating the determinants of suction feeding performance in centrarchid fishes
Holzman, Roi; Day, Steven; Mehta, Rita; Wainwright, Peter (Company of Biologists, 2008-10-07)When suction-feeding vertebrates expand their buccal cavity to draw water into their mouth, they also exert a hydrodynamic force on their prey. This force is key to strike success, directly countering forces exerted by ... -
Timing is everything: Coordination of strike kinematics affects the force exerted by suction feeding fish on attached prey
Holzman, Roi; Day, Steven; Wainwright, Peter (Journal of Experimental BiologyCompany of Biologists, 2007-07-17)During aquatic suction feeding, the predator opens its mouth and rapidly expands its buccal cavity, generating a flow field external to the mouth. The rapid expansion of the buccal cavity produces high fluid velocities ...
