Journal of Comparative Physiology. A, Neuroethology, Sensory, Neural, and Behavioral Physiology

The Journal of Comparative Physiology A focuses on the study of neuroethology, sensory physiology, neural physiology, and behavioral physiology. It publishes research articles that explore the similarities and differences in physiological processes across different species, shedding light on the mechanisms underlying animal behavior and sensory perception. The journal serves as a platform for scientists to share their findings and contribute to our understanding of the complex interplay between the nervous system, behavior, and the environment.

Flupyradifurone, imidacloprid and clothianidin disrupt the auditory processing in the locust CNS
Christian M, Kraft M, Wilknitz P, Nowotny M, Schoneich S
J Comp Physiol A Neuroethol Sens Neural Behav Physiol . 2025 Feb; PMID: 39939492
Since the EU banned classic neonicotinoids like imidacloprid and clothianidin, they may be replaced by more recently marketed insecticides such as flupyradifurone. However, they all operate on the same neuropharmacological...
