It is clear from
a large body of evidence that many larvae control their horizontal distribution
and dispersal by navigating vertically in the water column on both ontogenetic
and die! schedules. In this review, I summarize the ways that larvae respond
behaviorally to the biotic and abiotic attributes of their environment while
swimming. This large body of work has been reviewed so many times (Sulkin,
1984; Forward, 1976; Young and Chia, 1987), that a comprehensive review is
unnecessary. I will use examples from the recent literature to illustrate the
range of known larval behaviors, while attempting to place the observations in a realistic ecological and oceanographic context Florida Atlantic University.
