The first optic neuropil of the compound eye, the lamina, of the skipper butterfly Parnara
guttata, was examined by light microscopy after Golgi‐impregnation and by electron …

Profiles of the axonal endings of seven retinular cells (R1–7) from each of six stemmata (I–
VI) of the butterfly Papilio xuthus were examined. Their axons enter the brain anteroventrally …

The compound eye of the butterfly Papilio xuthus is composed of three types of spectrally
heterogeneous ommatidia. The ommatidia, which contain nine photoreceptor cells, R1–9 …

ABSTRACT A pair of long visual fibers projects from each ommatidium of the compound eye
of the dragonfly Sympetrum. They arise from retinular cell R7 and its slender partner R6. To …

The present work reports on a neuroanatomical study of the butterfly Pararge aegeria
(Lepidoptera: Satyridae) focusing on the lamina ganglionaris underlying two different …

The eye of the butterfly Papilio xuthus contains a random array of three types of ommatidia
(types I–III), each bearing nine photoreceptors, R1–R9. Of the six spectral classes of …

The retinular axons from the lateral ocelli have been examined in the brain of the larva of the
swallowtail butterfly, Papilio xuthus. The ocellar nerve, which joins the anteroventral part of …

Extensive analysis of the flower‐visiting behavior of a butterfly, Papilio xuthus, has indicated
complex interaction between chromatic, achromatic, and motion cues. Their eyes are …

The metamorphic fate of larval visual interneurons in the swallowtail butterfly Papilio xuthus
has been examined by using reduced silver impregnation and immunocytochemistry of γ …

Butterflies have nine photoreceptors within each ommatidium which have been named from
their positional orientation across the rhabdom. Within all ommatidia examined, there are …
