Polarization vision: Behavioral studies in tethered flying desert locusts, Schistocerca gregaria
Behavioral studies with tethered flying desert locusts show orientation on linearly polarized light. The dorsal rim area is the responsible part of the compound eye for mediating this behavior. Polarization information is exclusively sent from the dorsal rim area via the anterior optic tract to the...

Shrnutí: | Behavioral studies with tethered flying desert locusts show orientation on linearly polarized light. The dorsal rim area is the responsible part of the compound eye for mediating this behavior. Polarization information is exclusively sent from the dorsal rim area via the anterior optic tract to the central complex of the locust brain. |
