Abstract

Broad-nosed pipefish Syngnathus typhle were used to investigate whether males used scent in their search for mates. When the males in an experiment had access to olfactory cues only, they did not locate females better than they located males. Thus, S. typhle, was less successful in mate search when visual cues were absent. (C) 2011 The Authors Journal of Fish Biology (C) 2011 The Fisheries Society of the British Isles
