Is this scenery worth exploring? Insight into the visual encoding of navigating ants.

Léo Clément, Sebastian Schwarz, Blandine Mahot‐Castaing, Antoine Wystrach

This study shows that ants use a simple heuristic to decide if a visual scene is worth exploring, based on the presence of both vertical and horizontal edges.

Léo Clément, Sebastian Schwarz, Antoine Wystrach

This study shows desert ants use latent learning to memorize routes without forming map-like spatial representations, relying instead on egocentric visual memories.
