    Notes: A good understanding of the capabilities of commercially reared fish species to regulate intake of specific macronutrients has potential economic, welfare and environmental benefits. We present a conceptual and experimental framework for studying macronutrient intake in fish. This ‘geometric’ approach addresses the multidimensional and interactive nature of nutrition. It was developed from work on insect herbivores and has successfully been applied to mammals and birds. The various components of the framework are introduced in simple outlines, and key experimental designs are described for assessing whether or not fish specifically regulate their intake of macronutrients, how they balance over-ingesting some nutrients against undereating others when provided with suboptimal diets, and how they regulate growth post-ingestively.

    Notes: [Auszug] WE entomologists are a frustrated lot. It is blindingly obvious that insects are both beautiful and amazing, so why doesn't everybody else realize this? Granted, the aesthetic appeal of many insects is perhaps a tad difficult to convey to those poor souls without an entomocentric view, but ...

    Notes: Summary. We describe and extend a graphical approach to quantitative nutrition that focuses on the interplay between behavioural and physiological components of nutritional regulation. The site of integration is the nutrient transfer function, which is the function describing the time course of nutrient transfer between serially connected nutritional compartments (e.g., from the gut to the blood). The relationship between the shape of the nutrient transfer function and the temporal patterns of feeding determines the values of two key quantitative parameters of nutrition: the rate ('power') and the efficiency of nutrient acquisition. The approach can be extended to consider, in addition to the short-term behavioural and physiological decisions made by animals, some ecological determinants and longer-term, life history consequences of such decisions. Most importantly, this category of models can provide insights into the interplay among the various nutrients in an animal's diet. We illustrate this using hypothetical examples, and also present preliminary data for the power-efficiency relationships of protein and digestible carbohydrates in locusts. Finally, we consider existing evidence for the various means available to these and other insects for regulating such relationships.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé La sélection des aliments a été suivie pendant les 15 premiers jours de vie imaginale des mâles et des femelles deLocusta migratoria L. Les insectes recevaient 2 régimes alimentaires, l'un contentant 10, 20 ou 28% de protéines, mais pas de carbohydrates assimilables, l'autre 10, 20 ou 28% de carbohydrates assimilables, mais pas de protéines. Les quantités consommées, le détail de la prise de nourriture, et les croissances somatique et reproductive ont été mesurés. Malheureusement, ces régimes artificiels n'ont pas permis le développement ovarien des femelles. Cependant, il y a des preuves convaincantes que les insectes ont contrôlé leur apport en protéines et en carbohydrates pendant la phase de croissance somatique par une sélection alimentaire et une modification de la consommation.
    Notes: Abstract Dietary selection was investigated during the first 15 days of adult life in male and femaleLocusta migratoria L. Insects were provided with two artificial diets, one containing 10, 20 or 28% protein but no digestible carbohydrate, the other 10, 20 or 28% digestible carbohydrate but no protein. Amounts eaten, detailed feeding patterns and somatic and reproductive growth were measured. Unfortunately the artificial diets did not support female reproductive development. Nevertheless, there was convincing evidence that insects regulated both protein and carbohydrate intake during the somatic growth phase by dietary selection and altered consumption.

    Notes: Abstract The design features of gustatory systems are considered in relation to the need for insect herbivores (or indeed any animal) to regulate their nutrient intake. The gustatory system (defined to include both peripheral and central components) should ideally be designed to reflect: (a) the average nutritional requirements of the insect during its various developmental stages; (b) the ‘predictably unpredictable’ variation in nutrient supply-demand which occurs about that average; and (c) the distribution and composition of foods available in the environment. A mathematical model is presented which makes detailed predictions regarding behavioural and electrophysiological responses to foods or simple solutions varying in nutrient content.
