... temporal measures (TMTF, CFF, integration time, reaction time, temporal order). There is also increasing insight about temporal aspects of retinal processing, especially for motion vision. The present Review may be regarded as a ‘primal sketch’ of a research field with many unresolved questions. (1) Which...

... deviations. During free flight, however, course changes are also signalled by other sensory systems. Therefore, it is as yet unclear to what extent motion vision contributes to course control. To address this question, we genetically rendered flies motion-blind by blocking their primary motion-sensitive...

.../T5 neurons causes a complete loss of directional wide-field optomotor responses but largely intact orientation toward a dark bar (Bahl et al., 2013). That study supported the classical framework that bar-tracking behavior relies on both motion vision and motion-independent position information...

Papilio xuthus do not perceive contrast between unpolarized and diagonally polarized light, implying that they cannot unambiguously estimate angle and degree of polarization...
