Crustacean
Nervous Systems and their Control of
Behavior is the third volume of the series
The Natural History of the Crustacea. This
volume is on the functional organization
of crustacean nervous systems, and how
those nervous systems produce behavior. It
complements other volumes on related
topics of feeding biology, reproductive
biology, endocrine systems, and behavioral
ecology. There is a rich history of the
study of the neurobiology of crustaceans,
going back over 150 years. This has
included studies on how their nervous
systems allow them to perform behaviors
that are adapted to their particular
environments, as well as studying them as
model organisms to understand basic
biomedical principles about neural
function, such as sensory transduction and
processing, synaptic transmission and
integration, neuromodulation, and learning
and memory.
The volume has three sections that build
progressively on each other. The first
section is on the basic organizational
features of the crustacean nervous system
and the principles upon which it is built.
The second section is on sensory ecology -
the organization of each sensory system
and how it is used in intra- and
interspecific interactions, within an
ecological context. The third section uses
case studies of how crustacean nervous
systems are organized to perform complex
behaviors and interactions, such as
walking, escape, social interactions, and
memory and learning. Taken together, the
20 chapters synthesize our modern
understanding of the neural control of
behavior in crustaceans, based on the most
recent technologies in physiological
recording, molecular biology, and
computational science. This volume will be
useful to students and researchers as a
concise summary of current knowledge of
crustacean neuroscience.
