Item The optomotor response of a forebrainless fish, Tilapia mossambica. American Museum novitates ; no. 2446(New York, N.Y. : American Museum of Natural History, 1971) Shaw, Evelyn S.; Sherman, Richard A. W."The forebrain was removed from Tilapia mossambica, a cichlid fish that shows schooling behavior. The fish was tested in an optomotor apparatus before and after forebrain ablation.

The relevance of these findings to schooling is discussed"--P. 15.
