volume has both an introduction and a preface, which explain the relation to a previous volume and the scope and organization of the book, my role, as author of the foreword, is to be as cryptic as an oracle and be detached, not to say Olympian This is the view of one who was not at the Heron Island Conference but cares passionately for the bridging of research—from descriptive natural history of what animals to reductionist analysis of how they it, through all the grades of complexity from nerve nets to human brains My angle, like that of the conference organizers and book editors, is the input phase that determines and guides behavior This phase offers great freedom to manipulate conditions and to choose among modalities, to discriminate stages and levels of information processing, and to compare ontogenetic, experiential, evolutionary, and mood factors The hardware and software of sensory processing give us particularly good shots at the brass ring of how nervous systems have evolved from exceedingly simple to unbelievably complex It continues to be true, as it has been for a long time, that sensory neurobiology enjoys unique advantages It turns up new organs, like the lateral line analogs in cephalopods, and new functions for old organs, like the infrared specialization of the facial pits of crotalid snakes It sparks revolutions in understanding of integrative mechanisms, like the submodalities in photoreception, or the organization of brain divisions, like the roles of the cerebellum It breaks the brain-mind barrier by easing us into genuinely cognitive “higher functions,” such as expectations and attention arousing Hence, a flood of new research and the need for a new book Minirevolutions at many levels, with the explosion of new methods, change basic concepts of brain and receptor operation Thus, the approaches and organization of this volume depart from the past I welcome especially the frequent introduction of multisensory analysis and the bringing together of diverse senses involved in common ethological domains, like navigation, communication, and finding food I commend the authors for taking on v vi Foreword and dealing with such slippery and demanding questions as parallel evolution, plasticity of tuning, and translation of indoor controlled experiments into outdoor life in the raw I am pleased to see that the editors have insisted on informative summaries that help the browsing reader to choose what to peruse next Now, dear reader, it is your turn If you are not astonished and amused by something within the first hour, it will not be the fault of the authors, the editors—or the animals La Jolla, CA Ted Bullock Preface Our understanding of the way in which animals see, hear, smell, taste, feel, and electrically and magnetically sense the aquatic environment has advanced a great deal over the last 15 years In March 1999, after successfully enticing many of the leaders in the field of sensory processing to converge at Heron Island on the Great Barrier Reef in Australia, a wonderful week of intellectual exchange ensued During that week, the idea was hatched to present an update of the landmark text, Sensory Biology of Aquatic Animals by Atema et al (Springer-Verlag, 1988) This earlier volume raised the idea of considering the sensory systems of an animal as an integrated whole, rather than studying one sense and its capabilities separately In planning this book, we aimed to follow this idea through, addressing specific problem-based tasks set by the physics of the world and the animals within it, and then arranging chapters that examine their biological solutions The tasks identified form the five sections of the book Navigation and Communication in the aquatic medium presents a set of problems quite different from those in air, and Part examines some of these Not surprisingly, as water is often turbid, vision may become secondary to other sensory modalities in solving such problems, and this is reflected by the auditory, olfactory, and magnetic senses included in this section Navigation using polarized light patterns from the sky is a visual solution employed by many terrestrial animals and some from the aquatic realm, an additional problem for water dwellers being the destruction of the information at the air/water interphase Some aspects of this are also examined in Chapter 13 Finding Food and Other Localized Sources, such as potential mates, rivals, or predators, is one of the vital day-to-day tasks for any animal Part takes up this theme and, again because of the physics of life in water, many solutions employ senses foreign to us such as the detection of electrical or magnetic field disturbances or vibration detection Of course, vision is used by some aquatic organisms, and some adaptations for visual targeting are discussed in the final chapter of this section vii viii The evolution of any sensory system is limited and guided both by the physical attributes of habitat and medium and the biological building blocks that construct the animal This is the subject of Part 3, entitled, The Coevolution of Signal and Sense, a section that samples recent work in vision, audition, and olfaction Not included here are some of the wonderful discoveries in recent years within the field of electrosense These are discussed elsewhere in the book in other contexts (Chapters 4, 5, 20, and 22), and the reader is directed to a recent special issue of the Journal of Experimental Biology (volume 204, 2001) on the subject Organisms living in the deep-sea environment have received much attention over the past 15 years This research has been driven by advances in sampling techniques, using ingenious devices deployed from both submersibles and ships, bringing deep-sea creatures to the surface in almost perfect condition The deep-sea is a natural laboratory, where one can explore sensory thresholds such as visual sensitivity Therefore, we thought it appropriate to include a part dedicated to the challenges of vision in the deep, Part 4, Visual Adaptations to Limited Light Environments Traveling deeper in the ocean, sunlight is replaced by bioluminescence and the visual systems of the inhabitants there have undergone incredible changes to optimize light capture, sensitivity, and tuning of the visual pigments to the ambient light The final chapter in this part examines the visual adaptations of crustaceans from both deep and shallow oceans, notably including the mantis shrimps (stomatopods), the beautiful but violent possessors of the world’s most complex color vision system Stomatopods seemingly examine the color world with the same coding principles used by the ear, emphasizing the need for an integrated approach to our understanding of sensory processing Part 5, Central Coordination and Evolution of Sensory Inputs, focuses on the evolution of the central nervous system, and some of the ways the large input of sensory signals are processed and filtered to allow behaviorally important signals to be sorted from noise Particularly within the relatively large brains of vertebrates, this is a complex area with which we struggle, and it is certainly one of the major challenges for the future of sensory biology We hope that those undertaking this rewarding task will remember to keep their angle of attack both comparative and integrated The final chapter returns to the periphery and the convergent evolution of a bill-shaped electrosensory organ A very Australian structure, it is now shared with the southern United States Different animals solving the same tasks in the sensory world often come up with similar solutions, the classic example previously being the convergence in design of cephalopod and vertebrate eyes As visual animals, we naturally tend toward working on visual systems and that bias is represented in this book The convergence of lateral line systems between cephalopods and vertebrates is pointed out in the Foreword and Chapter 14 and, along with this final example of electrosensory convergence, it is clear that working on senses other Preface Preface ix than vision is worth the effort Although both vision scientists ourselves, we encourage students to think beyond the sense of vision and to consider the other senses Olfaction or chemosense, the first sensory system to evolve on earth, still remains more important to most animals on earth than vision Perhaps in 15 years, when the next update on aquatic sensory systems is published, the bias of chapters will reflect this? We would like to sincerely thank the generous support of the University of Queensland and the University of Western Australia since the inception of this project We would also like to thank the staff of Springer-Verlag, especially Robin Smith and Janet Slobodien, for their patient cooperation and all the contributing authors for sharing their ideas and presenting their exciting research in such an integrated way We hope that this book will challenge students and established scientists alike to learn more about sensory processing and the novel and astonishing ways in which aquatic animals survive in an environment occupying over nine-tenths of this planet Brisbane, Queensland Australia Shaun P Collin N Justin Marshall 432 moving prey, or rapidly moving water, or both, will severely impact on the platypus’s ability to track prey in conditions of low water impedance This may explain how platypus are so successful at catching fast-moving shrimp in pure streams, and perhaps illuminate the presently unexplained absence of platypus from increasingly saline streams on the western drainage of the Great Dividing Range One of the most extraordinary findings in these studies, the close coordination of electroreception and mechanoreception in a complex central array that is reminiscent of primate ocular dominance columns, was made just as laboratory-based platypus studies were being phased out In the future, fruitful investigations would involve study of the combined action of mechanoreceptive and electroreceptive waterborne stimuli that originate from the same target We predict that combined stimuli of this kind will be much more effective in eliciting platypus behavior than electrical or mechanical stimuli alone Acknowledgments The work on platypus was supported by the Australian Electricity Supply Industry Research Board and an ARC Special Research Centre grant to JDP Despite initial misgivings, Queensland Minister for the Environment, Pat Comben, gave important support that we believe has been vindicated by the wealth of new information gained on platypus electroreception that is relevant to both husbandry of captive animals and conservation in the wild The work on paddlefishes was supported by the U.S Office of Naval Research, National Science Foundation, and University of Missouri Research Board This work could not have been done without the cooperation of the Missouri Department of Conservation, which has generously provided fishes from their Blind Pony Hatchery Collecting juvenile fishes from the wild would have been prohibitively
