How freely-swimming teleost fish collect and compute metric spatial information underwater?

Cecilia Karlsson, Jay Willis, Matishalin Patel, Theresa Burt de Perera. Teleost fish can accurately estimate distance travelled. doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/834341

Abstract
Terrestrial animals compute shortcuts through their environment by integrating self-motion vectors containing distance and direction information. The sensory …

Whether entorhinal velocity signals are equally influenced or provide a universal metric for self-motion across environments?

Munn, Robert GK, Caitlin S. Mallory, Kiah Hardcastle, Dane M. Chetkovich, and Lisa M. Giocomo. “Entorhinal velocity signals reflect environmental geometry.” bioRxiv (2019): 671222. doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/671222

Summary
The entorhinal cortex contains neural signals for representing self-location, including grid
