Blind cavefish evolved food-searching behavior without changing sensory modality compared with sighted conspecies in the dark

This study shows cavefish use similar sensory modalities to surface fish for food searching but with higher adherence to stimuli and an extended circling strategy.

Possible role of left-right asymmetry in the sensory system and behavior during adaptation to food-sparse cave environments

The study investigates how left-right asymmetry in sensory systems and behavior adapts to food-sparse cave environments in Mexican tetras using machine learning and sensory ablation.
