Evidence of learning walks related to scorpion home burrow navigation
The navigation by chemo-textural familiarity hypothesis (NCFH) suggests that scorpions use
their midventral pectines to gather chemical and textural information near their burrows and …

Exploring the chemo-textural familiarity hypothesis for scorpion navigation
DD Gaffin, BP Brayfield - The Journal of Arachnology, 2017 - BioOne
The navigation by scene familiarity hypothesis provides broad explanatory power for how
bees and ants navigate from the hive to distant food sources and back. The premise is that …

Looking down: a model for visual route following in flying insects
J Stankiewicz, B Webb - Bioinspiration & Biomimetics, 2021 - iopscience.iop.org
Insect visual navigation is often assumed to depend on panoramic views of the horizon, and
how these change as the animal moves. However, it is known that honey bees can visually …

High-throughput simulations indicate feasibility of navigation by familiarity with a local sensor such as scorpion pectines
A Musaelian, DD Gaffin - BioRxiv, 2020 - biorxiv.org
Scorpions have arguably the most elaborate “tongues” on the planet: two paired ventral
combs, called pectines, that are covered in thousands of chemo-tactile peg sensilla and that …
