蜜蜂已被训练,同时访问两个馈线被释放在五个地点位于更远离训练区。谐波雷达跟踪用于记录完整的归航飞行。蜜蜂在弯曲的搜索飞行之间执行多个直线飞行组件(SFC)。SFC反映了两个喂食点之间的矢量方向以及喂食点和蜂巢之间的相应矢量。还观察到返回蜂巢的直飞航班。后者属于归巢策略,要求蜜蜂确定其相对于蜂巢的位置。我们解释这两个导航策略,反映了新的捷径航班的方向组件的应用。两者合计,我们的研究结果表明,蜜蜂应用几个不同的方向组件的矢量,这是直接经历飞行过程中或来自长距离矢量集成或映射。
Honeybees that had been trained to visit two feeders simultaneously were released at five sites located further away from the training area. Harmonic radar tracking was used to record the complete homing flights. The bees performed multiple straight flight components (SFCs) between curved search flights. SFCs reflect vector directions between the two feeding sites and the respective vectors between the feeding sites and the hive. Direct flights back to the hive were also observed. The latter belong to a homing strategy that requires the bee to identify its location relative to the hive. We interpret these two navigation strategies as reflecting the application of a directional component of novel shortcut flights. Taken together, our findings indicate that bees apply several different directional components of vectors which are either experienced directly during flight or derived from long-distance vector integration or mapping.
