The effects of hunger on locomotory behavior in two species of wolf spider

Article Abstract:

The influence of recent feeding history on locomotory behavior in two species of wolf spiders Hogna helluo and Pardosa milvina Hentz, were compared. H. helluo exhibited a shift in locomotory activity depending on feeding regime, while P. milvina did not. P. milvina was more active than H. helluo and it is proposed that P. milvina is an active forager, while H. helluo uses a sit and wait strategy.

Ontogeny of locomotory behaviour in the American locust, Schistocerca americana: from marathoner to broad jumper

Article Abstract:

Using grasshoppers as a model, ontogeny of locomotive activities in invertebrates is analyzed. Jumping activity in American locust grasshoppers, Schistocerca Americana, is presented to justify the research.
