Insect Dorsal Ocelli (9:00am–12:30pm, Room 304, July 27th) Organizer: †Joshua van Kleef (University of California Berkeley, USA). Most insects possess three simple eyes, known as the dorsal ocelli, whose role in behavior has fascinated scientists for hundreds of years. Our workshop will examine the latest optical, anatomical, neurophysiological and behavioural clues to the functions of ocelli in a diverse range of insects that includes ants, bees, dragonflies, blowflies, locusts and wasps. Timetable 8:50am – 9:00am Welcome
