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 …

Solitary foraging ants commonly use visual cues from their environment for navigation.
Foragers are known to store visual scenes from the surrounding panorama for later …

Solitary foraging ants have a navigational toolkit, which includes the use of both terrestrial
and celestial visual cues, allowing individuals to successfully pilot between food sources …

The ability of ants to navigate when the visual landmark information is altered has often
been tested by creating large and artificial discrepancies in their visual environment. Here …

Ants use both terrestrial landmarks and celestial cues to navigate to and from their nest
location. These cues persist even as light levels drop during the twilight/night. Here, we …

How do ants resolve conflicts between different sets of navigational cues during navigation?
When two cue sets point to diametrically opposite directions, theories predict that animals …

We constructed a large projection device (the Antarium) with 20,000 UV-Blue-Green LEDs
that allows us to present tethered ants with views of their natural foraging environment. The …

Ants of the Australian genus Myrmecia partition their foraging niche temporally, allowing
them to be sympatric with overlapping foraging requirements. We used histological …

In recent years the bull ant Myrmecia midas Clark, 1951, has attracted attention for its
impressive visual navigation during its nocturnal activity. Still, a basic understanding of this …

Ants are one of the most abundant and ubiquitous organisms on Earth and play critical roles
in multiple ecosystem services such as seed dispersal and nutrient cycling. Despite this, the …
