PCAs were grouped according to their successful or unsuccessful outcome, so that the sequence presented is not in the same chronological order as in the actual experiments. Abbreviations: nprey_movement = total number of prey movements during the respective PCA; nantenna_return_stroke = number of second antennae return strokes during the respective PCA; nantenna_downstroke = number of second antennae downstrokes during the respective PCA; nantenna_asynchronous = number of asynchronous second antennae movements during the respective PCA.
