Originally a genetic model organism, the experimental use of Drosophila melanogaster has
grown to include quantitative behavioral analyses, sophisticated perturbations of neuronal …

Mosquitoes track odors, locate hosts, and find mates visually. The color of a food resource,
such as a flower or warm-blooded host, can be dominated by long wavelengths of the visible …

Simple Summary Insect behaviors are a great indicator of evolution and provide useful
information about the complexity of organisms. The realistic sensory scene of an …

For color vision, retinal circuits separate information about intensity and wavelength. In
vertebrates that use the full complement of four “ancestral” cone types, the nature and …

Colour vision allows animals to use the information contained in the spectrum of light to
control important behavioural decisions such as selection of habitats, food or mates. Among …

Ants are ecologically one of the most important groups of insects and exhibit impressive
capabilities for visual learning and orientation. Studies on numerous ant species …

A catalog of neuronal cell types has often been called a “parts list” of the brain, and regarded
as a prerequisite for understanding brain function. In the optic lobe of Drosophila, rules of …

Animal colour patterns remain a lively focus of evolutionary and behavioural ecology,
despite the considerable conceptual and technical developments over the last four decades …

Color vision is an important sensory capability of humans and many animals. It relies on
color opponent processing in visual circuits that gradually compare the signals of …

Retinal‐inspired synaptic phototransistors, which integrate light signal detection,
preprocessing, and memory functions, show promising applications in artificial vision …
