🍾💥 We are on the map! The new www.navisense.org cluster will be funded by the DFG for the next 7 years! Thx for great companionship along the way. Exciting collaborations are ahead of us. And we’ve got them all 🐦 🦐🐜🦋 and 🦇, of course 🙂 But also robotics and quantum physics, so check it out!

Prey Capture Outside of the Web? Observational Evidence of a Novel Form of Prey Capture in a Cave Orb Web Spider
It is currently not known how the European cave orb spider Meta menardi (d) catches the non-flying prey, which makes up approximately half of its diet. Our observations in winter and summer from cave...

Common terns are assortatively mated with respect to their levels of #mercury #pollution, and transfer mercury to their eggs. Another amazing body of work from Justine's PhD thesis has turned into a paper. To be found in Environmental Research and open access: doi.org/10.1016/j.en...

Full pelage Ultra-Violet fluorescence occurs in both lesser horseshoe bat, Rhinolophus hipposideros (André, 1797) and Blasius's horseshoe bat R. blasii Peters, 1967.
Ultra-Violet (UV) fluorescence has been observed and reported in a wide range of living organisms from lower plants to mammals. In animals, its function has been attributed to a range of behaviours in...

... they compensate by adapting their flight path and vocalizations.
They flew lower, oriented themselves along walls and increased both the number and length of their calls, boosting the power of echo signals used for navigation.

Did you know that Claude Shannon also developed maze solving algorithms?
Which he implemented physically using a wooden mouse named Theseus.
To solve a given maze, on a grid, Theseus used two modes:
