昆虫纲的主要进化趋势之一是导致社会性膜翅目大脑中蘑菇体（带柄菌体）的增加、大小和复杂性。由于众所周知，蚂蚁和蜜蜂学习能力很好，因此推测这些叶参与其中似乎是合理的。之前的一项研究（Vowles，1964a）表明，在接受过嗅觉任务训练的木蚁中，蘑菇体内的损伤不会影响其性能，但切断蘑菇体触角叶和α叶之间的纤维束（Vowles，1955）会导致无法识别嗅觉线索。仅当对侧触角被截除时，单侧病变才会影响性能。
One of the major evolutionary trends in the Insecta has resulted in the increase and size and complexity of the mushroom bodies (corpora pedunculata) in the brains of social hymenoptera. Since ants and bees are known to learn well, it seems reasonable to suppose that these lobes are involved. In a previous study (Vowles, 1964a) it was shown that, in wood ants which had been trained in an olfactory task, lesions within the mushroom bodies did not disrupt performance, but severing tracts between the antennal lobes and the alpha lobes (Vowles, 1955) of the mushroom bodies caused failure to recognize the olfactory cues. Unilateral lesions disrupted performance only if the contralateral antenna had been amputated.
