Light represents one of the most reliable environmental cues in the biological world. In this
review we focus on the evolutionary consequences to changes in organismal photic …

Visual navigation is a benchmark information processing task that can be used to identify the
consequence of being active in dim-light environments. Visual navigational information that …

In order to protect their food from competitors, ball-rolling dung beetles detach a piece of
dung from a pile, shape it into a ball, and roll it away along a straight path [1]. They appear to …

The navigation by chemo-textural familiarity hypothesis (NCFH) suggests that scorpions use
their midventral pectines to gather chemical and textural information near their burrows and …

Much evidence has accumulated in recent years, demonstrating that the degree to which
navigating insects rely on path integration or landmark guidance when displaced depends …

Abstract The Green Weaver ants, Oecophylla smaragdina are iconic animals known for their
extreme cooperative behaviour where they bridge gaps by linking to each other to build …

In addition to foraging individually several species of ants guide nestmates to a goal by
tandem running. We found that the Australian ant, Camponotus consobrinus, forages both …

Ant foragers are known to memorise visual scenes that allow them to repeatedly travel along
idiosyncratic routes and to return to specific places. Guidance is provided by a comparison …

Many walking insects use vision for long-distance navigation, but the influence of vision on
rapid walking performance that requires close-range obstacle detection and directing the …

Most insects are morphologically and behaviourally adapted to a terrestrial lifestyle, and
many species struggle if they fall onto the water surface. Yet, some terrestrial species exhibit …
