Abstract:
Abstract: The study of foraging behaviour is crucial for understanding several ecological and adaptive
processes, aswell as for developing conservationmeasures. While extensive research has been completed
on birds and mammals, few studies have been conducted on the learning capabilities of amphibians,
particularly those pertaining to foraging behaviour. Amphibians may detect potential prey through
distinct sensory systems including visual detection, chemoreception, and mechanoreception. In this
study, we tested whether fire salamander larvae shift their prey recognition depending on the prey
stimulus typology. We performed behavioural assays to better understand the roles of visual and
chemical cues in prey recognition and how a continuative visual stimulus may change behavioural
patterns. For this assessment, larvae from different habitats (cave and stream) were reared under
laboratory conditions and fed while exposed to accompanying sensory stimuli. Their responses to visual
and olfactory cues were measured before and after rearing. Both visual and chemical cues significantly
affected the time of approach to the stimulus. The period of rearing significantly interacted with the time
of approach for both cues. After rearing, when visual cues occurred, the time of approach was much
lower than before rearing. These findings provide a basis for further studies on the role of plasticity in
the predator–prey interactions of fire salamander larvae.
