Does the ophiuroid Amphiura filiformis alert conspecifics to the danger of predation through the generation of an alarm signal?

Abstract
The ability of the ophiuroid Amphiura filiformis to alert conspecifics to the presence of a predator was investigated. Our preliminary findings indicate that intraspecific communication of an alarm signal does not occur and that, ultimately, the motivation for altering behaviour in response to a stimulus is not oriented to the population as a whole
