Guidance of Navigating Honeybees by Learned Elongated Ground Structures

Guidance of Navigating Honeybees by Learned Elongated Ground Structures

Elongated landscape features like forest edges, rivers, roads or boundaries of fields are particularly salient landmarks for navigating animals. Here, we ask how honeybees learn such structures and how they are used during their homing flights after being released at an unexpected location (catch-an...
