Small Home Range

The movements, homing behavior, and initial orientation to the capture site were investigated in Ulvaria subbifurcata using an underwater habitat and scuba. Field experiments showed that this benthic species restricts its activity to a small home range, less than 3 m2, is capable of returning to that home area after being displaced at least 270 m, and can orient in the direction of the home site after displacements of at least 30 m. The conditions under which the orientation experiments were conducted indicate that visual cues are not necessary for the orientational response.

Oligocottus Maculosus

The roles of vision and olfaction in the homing mechanism of Oligocottus maculosus Girard are investigated in this present study. These were tested by studying the homing performance of displaced blind, anosmic, and normal individuals, and the home-site fidelity of replaced individuals. The study was conducted at a rocky beach near Port Renfrew, on the southwest coast of Vancouver Island, throughout 1968, 1969, and 1970. A significant reduction in. home-site fidelity was observed for blind and anosmic fish when compared with normal individuals, while no significant difference in fidelity was observed between them, indicating that both vision and olfaction are important components of home-site fidelity. From displacement experiments, blind fish are found to home belter than anosmic individuals, and on occasions they are equal in homing ability to normal fish. This indicates that vision may not be an important sensory channel in the homing of O. maculosus while olfaction may be. The homing mechanism is briefly discussed.

Homing Performance

The roles of olfaction and vision in the homing behaviour and orientation to a home site in Ulvaria subbifurcata were investigated. These were examined by studying the home-site fidelity and the homing performance of normal, blind, and anosmic fish and the orientation to the home site of normal and sensory-impaired fish. The orientation and homing experiments indicated that olfactory contact with the home site is involved in the steering mechanism in homing. The home-site fidelity of anosmic fish, and the fact that some anosmic fish homed, indicated that vision may also be involved in the recognition of a restricted area around the home site.
