MANTLE KNOWLEDGE. “Because the mantle wraps around the top edge of the shell, it senses, in addition to the exposed edge, some previous history of pigmentation a distance back from the leading edge. Pigmentation near the leading edge has an excitatory effect on local secretion, whereas pigmentation sensed further from the edge has an inhibitory effect.”
