Abstract
1. 1. A model for target localization, developed for Squilla mantis, was modified for two other stomatopod species. 2. 2. While Squilla live in dim light, Odontodactylus scyllarus live in medium bright and Gonodactylus in extremely bright habitats. 3. 3. The critical zones for prey capture, selected by a decision neuron, were identified. These are bifurcated, stretching out for long distances. 4. 4. A much more limited critical zone is obtained by introducing a strike command neuron, which receives inputs only from the two central ommatidia in the middle band instead of from all six as does the decision neuron. 5. 5. The results correspond to the different behavior patterns in prey capture for the different species.
