How lobsters, crayfishes, and crabs locate sources of odor: current perspectives and future directions.
Olfactory orientation poses many challenges for crustaceans in marine environments. Recent behavioral experiments lead to a new understanding of the role of multiple sensory appendages, whereas application of non-invasive chemical visualization techniques and biomimetic robotics have allowed researchers to correlate the stimulus environment with behavior and to directly test proposed orientation mechanisms in decapod crustaceans.
