Synopsis
Excerpt from Das Sinnesleben der Insekten
Es ist Exner gelungen, das alleinige aufrechte Gesamtbild, wie es im Facettenauge von Lampyris splendidula (leuchtkäfer) gebildet und von dem Gehirn dieses lnsektes zweifellos mehr oder minder deutlich wahrgenommen wird, zu entdecken und zu fixieren. Dieses Bild ist wesentlich deutlicher als das, welches er auf Grund seiner Theorien vermutet hatte, und welches ich selbst im Anfang dieses Buches (taf. I, Fig. 3) abgebildet habe. Wenn nun dies letztere nicht sehr deutlich ist, so darf nicht vergessen werden, dass es ein theo retisch nur von drei Facetten erzeugtes Bild, und zwar eines sehr kleinen Gegenstandes wiedergeben will. Auch möchte ich hier gleich erwähnen, dass Exner selbst seinen Zweifel dariiber ausspricht, ob das lnsekt fähig ist, das betreffende Bild mit derselben Schärfe wahr zunehmen, mit der es von ihm (exner) selbst gesehen und photo graphiert worden ist. Gesetzt selbst, dass dies möglich ist, so ist doch das biologische Experiment allein imstande, uns mit annä hernder Bestimmtheit darüber Auskunft zu geben, was Exner selbst auch vollständig zugibt.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is an in-depth examination of the sensory physiology of insects, a topic which gained significant attention with the development of the microscope in the 17th century. It explores the evolution and mechanisms of insect sensory organs and their associated sensory experiences. The author, a renowned entomologist, delves into the controversies and complexities surrounding this topic, and unravels the latest findings on insect sensory perception. The book is particularly rich in its study of the visual perception of insects and how this is influenced by the structure and anatomy of insect eyes - a subject which has sparked particular controversy over the years. The author's deep understanding of the subject, coupled with his accessible and engaging writing style, make this book an invaluable resource for students and scholars of entomology, sensory biology, and related fields.
