The central complex is a group of modular neuropils across the midline of the insect brain.
Hallmarks of its anatomical organization are discrete layers, an organization into arrays of …

Path integration is a widespread navigational strategy in which directional changes and
distance covered are continuously integrated on an outward journey, enabling a straight-line …

In many situations animals are confronted with approaching objects. Depending on whether
the approach represents a potential threat or is intended during a goal-oriented approach …

The central complex is a prominent set of midline neuropils in the insect brain, known to be a
higher locomotor control center that integrates visual inputs and modulates motor outputs. It …

The central complex in the brain of insects provides a neural network for sensorimotor
processing that is essential for spatial navigation and locomotion and plays a role in sleep …

Cellular ultrastructures for signal integration are unknown in any nervous system. The
ellipsoid body (EB) of the Drosophila brain is thought to control locomotion upon integration …

One approach to investigating functional attributes of the central complex is to relate its
various elaborations to pancrustacean phylogeny, to taxon-specific behavioral repertoires …

Brain structure and function are tightly correlated across all animals. While these relations
are ultimately manifestations of differently wired neurons, many changes in neural circuit …

The central complex is a group of midline‐crossing neuropils in the insect brain involved in
head direction coding, sky compass navigation, and spatial visual memory. To compare the …

In the arthropod brain, the central complex (CX) receives various forms of sensory signals
and is associated with motor functions, but its precise role in behavior is controversial. The …
