We show that guiding behavior to these vertebrates is spatially and acoustically similar to honeyguide behavior when guiding to bees; yet

The Complexly Parcellated, Yet Quantitatively Reduced, Orexinergic/Hypocretinergic System of Humans
Journal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 533, Issue 2, February 2025.Immunohistochemical staining for orexin‐A reveals the novel parvocellular orexinergic neuronal cluster (left) in the human brain. In comparison to the more typically observed orexinergic neurons of the main cluster (right), the parvocellular neurons have much smaller soma. Scale bar = 100 µm, applies to both images.
