Abstract


Fish pheromones are much more studied than those of other nonmammalian vertebrates. A "pheromone" is a chemical that triggers a natural behavioral response in another member of the same species. There are alarm pheromones, food trail pheromone, sex pheromone and many other that affect behavior or physiology.
