“…Previous research concerned with the function of the forebrain in fish has failed to disclose any easily defined behavioral deficits following ablation other than the expected loss of olfaction (Healey, 1957;Strieck, 1925). Fish without a forebrain appear to swim and feed normally (Janzen, 1933;Zunini, 1941), and they will learn simple maze problems for food reward (Hillowitz, 1945).…”

39 goldfish, either normal, sham operated, or forebrain ablated, were tested in the acquisition, extinction, and retention of an instrumental avoidance response with either a short or long delay between operations and testing. Forebrain removal severely impaired or prevented acquisition, greatly reduced resistance to extinction, and completely abolished a previously learned response. The deficits were permanent-an 8-wk. delay between operations and testing did not result in improved performances. Median escape latencies did not differ between groups, indicating that the deficit is specific to avoidance learning.

“…The experiments of Strieck (58) on the behavior of fishes (minnows) towards chemical stimuli are of capital importance in this connection. Strieck first established the fact that the minnow can discriminate between chemical substances which for man arouse sweet, salt, sour, and bitter sensations, respectively.…”

“…In herbivorous mammals, which belong among the "hunted" rather than the "hunters," a wide compass of vision is gained by lateral placement of the eyes, but the binocular field is then necessarily very small. (5) However, Tschermak (58) and Rochon-Duvigneaud (6G) have made careful measurements upon a number of vertebrates with lateral eyes, and in all cases it was discovered that there is at least a certain small binocular field. Herter (62) has experimentally demonstrated the existence of binocular depth perception in fishes.…”
