Pabst K, Gkanias E, Webb B, Homberg U, Endres D
PLoS Comput Biol
. 2024 Dec;
20(12):e1012155.
PMID: 39705331
Accurate navigation often requires the maintenance of a robust internal estimate of heading relative to external surroundings. We present a model for angular velocity integration in a desert locust heading...

. 2024 Dec;
532(12):e70009.
PMID: 39658819
Navigating in diverse environments to find food, shelter, or mating partners is an important ability for nearly all animals. Insects have evolved diverse navigational strategies to survive in challenging and...

J Comp Physiol A Neuroethol Sens Neural Behav Physiol
. 2024 Mar;
210(2):109-144.
PMID: 38551673
The Journal of Comparative Physiology A is the premier peer-reviewed scientific journal in comparative physiology, in particular sensory physiology, neurophysiology, and neuroethology. Founded in 1924 by Karl von Frisch and...

Althaus V, Exner G, von Hadeln J, Homberg U, Rosner R
J Comp Neurol
. 2024 Mar;
532(3):e25607.
PMID: 38501930
Many predatory animals, such as the praying mantis, use vision for prey detection and capture. Mantises are known in particular for their capability to estimate distances to prey by stereoscopic...

Jahn S, Althaus V, Heckmann J, Janning M, Seip A, Takahashi N, et al.
J Comp Neurol
. 2023 Aug;
531(16):1689-1714.
PMID: 37608556
Insects have evolved remarkable abilities to navigate over short distances and during long-range seasonal migrations. The central complex (CX) is a navigation center in the insect brain that controls spatial...

Homberg U, Kirchner M, Kowalewski K, Pitz V, Kinoshita M, Kern M, et al.
J Comp Neurol
. 2023 Jul;
531(14):1482-1508.
PMID: 37478205
Serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine) acts as a widespread neuromodulator in the nervous system of vertebrates and invertebrates. In insects, it promotes feeding, enhances olfactory sensitivity, modulates aggressive behavior, and, in the central...

J Comp Neurol
. 2023 Jul;
531(14):1350-1380.
PMID: 37424289
In most animals, multiple external and internal signals are integrated by the brain, transformed and, finally, transmitted as commands to motor centers. In insects, the central complex is a motor...

J Comp Physiol A Neuroethol Sens Neural Behav Physiol
. 2023 May;
209(4):459-464.
PMID: 37198448
The neural basis underlying spatial orientation in arthropods, in particular insects, has received considerable interest in recent years. This special issue of the Journal of Comparative Physiology A seeks to...

PMID: 37187914
Flexible orientation through any environment requires a sense of current relative heading that is updated based on self-motion. Global external cues originating from the sky or the earth's magnetic field...
