Table 2.

Mean number of strikes per trial, for every combination of simulated distance and prey angular size presented to the mantises. The highest mean number for every simulated distance is marked in italics. The pattern fails to follow that indicated by size constancy as indicated in table 1.

		angular size (°)
		7.5	11.25	16.88	25.31
simulated distance (cm)	2.5	0.47	0.72	0.62	0.41
	3.75	0.07	0.17	0.28	0.34
	5.63	0.00	0.00	0.05	0.15
