The giant fibres of crayfish comprise a pre-motor system that secures rapid con-traction of phasic flexor muscles in the abdomen. The result of their activation is a sudden flexion of all abdominal segments that propels the animal backward in an 'escape ' response; repeated sequences of similar tail-flips, with intervening fas
