Abstract

A study is conducted to examine the avoidance response of the intertidal snail Littornia sutulata sensu lato to chemical cues from the predatory crab Hemigrapsus nudus, both from the Pacific coast of Canada, using two-choice laboratory experiments. The findings indicate a risk hierarchy, with risk increasing from control seawater, to predator cues, to injured-conspecific cues, to a combination of predator and injured cues.
