The potential underlying mechanisms during learning flights
OJN Bertrand, A Sonntag - Journal of Comparative Physiology A, 2023 - Springer
Hymenopterans, such as bees and wasps, have long fascinated researchers with their

Ant colonies explore novel environments with more slower, curvier walks, particularly near the nest
S Popp, A Dornhaus - Insectes Sociaux, 2023 - Springer
Central-place foragers must learn the resource and visual landscapes around them when
they are in a new environment, to facilitate efficient foraging and navigation. We investigated …
