    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ß-tubulin; Bayesian analysis; dung; forage; fungi; moose; parsimony; phylogeny; Pleosporales; spore dispersal; Sporormiaceae; Terrestrial ecology; Terrestisk ekologi;

  6. 4. Keep it rolling : Straight-line orientation in South African ball-rolling dung beetles

    Author : Lana Khaldy; Funktionell zoologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ball-rolling dung beetle; Orientation; Heading direction network; Compass; Weighting; Celestial cues; Sun; Polarised light;

    Abstract : Representing a substantial range and variety in morphological and ecological niche, found on all continents of the globe (except for the Antarctic), the ball-rolling dung beetles provide an excellent model in which to study the heading direction network and the factors by which it is influenced. As soon as a ball-rolling dung beetle has located a fresh dung pile to feed on, it immediately starts shaping a piece of dung into a ball, rolling it away from the dung pat in as straight of a trajectory as the terrain allows.
