Before the brink: sublethal impacts of climate change on stingless bee flight performance

C. R. B. da Silva, L. D. Macnaughtan, O. W. Griffith, A. Narendra

This study examines how temperature affects flight performance in two stingless bee species and how their geographic ranges influence their thermal performance curves.

Moonlight Polarisation Pattern Guides Nocturnal Bull Ants Home

C. A. Freas, A. Narendra, T. Murray, K. Cheng

This study shows nocturnal bull ants use polarized moonlight for navigation during the night, similar to how they use solar polarized light during the day.

Parallel and divergent morphological adaptations underlying the evolution of jumping ability in ants

L. Aibekova, R. A. Keller, J. Katzke, D. M. Allman, F. Hita Garcia, D. Labonte, A. Narendra, E. P. Economo

This study identifies morphological adaptations in ant jumping by comparing muscle structures across jumping and non-jumping species, finding enlarged muscles and varied reliance on muscle contraction versus elastic recoil.

Deconstructing a visual signal: the role of motion and colour in predator deterrence

D. Rao, S. M. Long, H. Tapia-McClung, K. Salgado-Espinosa, A. Narendra, S. O. Aguilar-Arguello, L. E. Robledo-Ospina, D. Rodriguez-Morales, E. Jakob

This study investigates how wing movement and colour in tephritid flies affect jumping spider predation by manipulating visual contrast and attention.

Ocellar spatial vision in Myrmecia ants

B. Penmetcha, Y. Ogawa, L. A. Ryan, N. S. Hart, A. Narendra

This study investigates the contribution of compound eyes to ocellar spatial vision in ants and bees using pERG, finding that compound eyes significantly enhance ocellar contrast sensitivity.
