Notes:
The sight of its mirrored image increases the oxygen consumption of Blennius pholis. This is due to an increased metabolic rate and an increased activity. For schooling species, the opposite effect has been reported in the literature and has been termed the ‘group effect’. The B. Pholis response is discussed in relation to species specific preferences of the social environment. The hypothesis is put forward that deviations form the preferred social environment cause an activation of the individual.
