The kinematics of phototaxis in larvae of the ascidian Aplidium constellatum

Although phototaxis has an important influence on the vertical distribution and settlement of marine invertebrate larvae, few studies have explored the mechanisms of taxis in larvae at the organismal level. We examined how phototaxis changes over ontogeny in larvae of the ascidian Aplidium constella...
