Data and plotting scripts supporting the paper "Motion-in-depth perception and prey capture in the praying mantis Sphodromantis lineola". The data are from experiments that investigated the role of binocular and monocular cues to motion in depth perception during prey capture by mantises (Sphodromantis lineola) in different experiments as detailed in the paper. The datafiles for the mantises detail the occurrence and number of strikes in response to different disparity, looming and motion conditions.
