Stabilizing gaze in flying blowflies [PDF]
Nature, 1998 When the gaze is moved quickly, vision becomes blurred and the way in which three-dimensional structures are seen can be affected1. How can these effects be minimized? During flight, blowflies (Calliphora vicina) turn both the head and the thorax very quickly, producing gaze shifts which affect vision.

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.Our study contributes to our understanding of the effects of interspecific competition in species with biparental care where male and female parents must somehow coordinate their response to interspecific competition. Abstract Interspecific competition is an important evolutionary driver of many species' life histories and behaviours, arising wherever ...

Frontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2012 Hoverflies and blowflies have distinctly different flight styles. Yet, both species have been shown to structure their flight behaviour in a way that facilitates extraction of 3D information from the image flow on the retina (optic flow).
