	whole objects prior to recognition. Instead, they may segment and
	recognize these objects in a piecemeal way. Here we test whether
	observers can use the appearance of one object part to predict the
	location and appearance of other object parts. During several training
	sessions, observers studied an object against a blank background.
	They then viewed this object against a background of clutter that
	camouflaged some parts of the object while leaving other parts salient.
	The observer's task was to find the camouflaged part. We varied the
	symmetry of the salient part with the expectation that as this symmetry
	decreased, the information about the camouflaged part's location
	and appearance would increase and this would facilitate search. Our
	results suggest that observers can use the salient part to predict
	the location, but not the appearance, of the camouflaged part.}
