高等脊椎动物能够在大脑中构建一幅关于其家园的“地图”，并利用它们对地标之间空间关系的了解，沿着沿着新的路线导航，而无脊椎动物则被认为只能将地标作为一系列熟悉的特定路线来导航。蜜蜂的实验表明，这些昆虫具有并使用地标地图，从而使这种假定的无脊椎动物-脊椎动物二分法无效。
Whereas higher vertebrates are able to construct a mental "map" of their home area and so use their knowledge of the spatial relations between landmarks to navigate along novel routes, invertebrates have been thought able to use landmarks in their navigation only as a familiar, route-specific series. Experiments with honey bees show that these insects have and use landmark maps thus invalidating this presumed invertebrate-vertebrate dichotomy.
