Agonistic interactions between individuals are influenced by a variety of complex factors both internal and external. Due to the complex nature of interactions, it can be difficult to determine the specific driving factors that influence the outcome of agonistic interactions. In many species, physical and chemical signals are utilized to deliver specific cues to potential opponents and mitigate interactions. In aquatic systems chemical signals are often used and designed to be carried by the flow of the water to deliver ranged information. This information can include status, sexual availability, aggression, and other important cues that may not be discernable in the water column through other channels. Crustaceans are a well-known group for modeling dominance hierarchies due to their overt demonstrations for dominance and repetition of agonistic behaviors over time.The goal of this research was to investigate the role that chemical cue reception plays in determining dominance in agonistic interactions in female crayfish. To accomplish this, we generated groups of individuals and grouped them by size, form, and species to receive either the control or ablation treatment. Chemosensory ablation removed the animal's ability to detect chemical signals with their antennules through an extensive lesioning process which lysed the cells on that sensory organ. We discovered that lesioning of the antennules resulted in changes in duration and level of escalation of agonistic interactions among the crayfish species tested. Additionally, the size of the crayfish was a contributing factor to the duration and intensity of the interaction. Lesioned crayfish of larger size spend longer at low intensity agonistic behavior, likely due to the loss of chemical information from lesioning.
