Serotonin (5-HT) and octopamine have been implicated in regulating the behavioral phenotype of lobsters by altering levels of aggression in agonistic interactions (1). High-dosage injections of these amines consistently evoke extension (5-HT) and flexion (octopamine) postures in both lobsters and crayfish. These postures have been likened--probably erroneously--to aggressive and submissive postures, suggesting a specific role for these neuromodulators in social behavior (2). Dopamine injections into freely moving lobsters have also induced motor activity, including extension of claws, legs, and tail, originally interpreted as an agonistic posture (3). However, the relationship between neuromodulator treatment and overall crustacean behavior is not simple, with responses varying with the stimuli presented and the aminergic manipulations performed (4, 5). Serotonin is known to regulate feeding behavior in other animal species (6), but its effects on lobster feeding behavior and responses to odors have not yet been investigated. As lobsters are known to rely heavily on chemical signals for food and social information…
