“…In this setting, movements were possibly not distinct enough to be perceived and discriminated appropriately, despite high visual acuity regarding stationary objects (Fuss et al, 2014b, c, Fuss & Schluessel, in press;Schluessel, Beil, Weber, & Bleckmann, 2014;Schluessel & Duengen, 2015). Bamboo sharks naturally live in visually well-structured environments such as coral reefs (Riede, 2004;Weigmann, 2016). Thus, bamboo sharks probably rarely experience "pure" or "isolated" motion without some kind of reference structure or system (as displayed in Experiment 1, Experiment 2B, T6 and Experiment 3, T7, T11, T17) resulting in a visual system that may be better adapted to detect relative movements of organisms (e.g., prey, predators or conspecifics) against a fixed background.…”
