Abstract
Examined the effects of predatory green sunfish Lepomis cyanellus on the behavior of fed and food-deprived water striders Gerris remigis. Both males and females reduced their activity in response to the presence of fish. Unfed females were more active than fed ones, though male activity was not affected by previous feeding history. -from Authors
