Depth perception in the praying mantis

Physiology and Behavior, 1972
Abstract The role of the binocular vision in praying mantis to assess long distances is studied, using as item of behavior the turning of the head when the insect is shown an indifferent stimulus. Results indicate that binocular vision is a cue to a change of distance. When no reduction of distance is involved, mantises seem to react according to the

Macroscopic characteristics of the praying mantis electroretinogram

Journal of Insect Physiology, 2013
We described the macroscopic characteristics of the praying mantis ERG in three species, Tenodera aridifolia sinensis, Sphodromantis lineola, and Popa spurca. In all cases, when elicited by square wave light pulses longer than 400 ms, light adapted (LA) ERGs consisted of four component waveforms: a cornea negative transient and sustained ON, a cornea ...

Seasonal aspects of sexual cannibalism in the praying mantis (Mantis religiosa)

Journal of Ethology, 2007
According to the adaptive foraging hypothesis of sexual cannibalism, females face a trade-off between mating and consuming a courting male. Because male and prey availability can change seasonally, sexual cannibalism may change with season. However, we are not aware of any work examining how sexual cannibalism in insects relates to the time of season ...

Ontogeny of the behaviour in the praying mantis

Journal of Insect Physiology, 1973
Abstract The attack of the mantid Stagmatoptera biocellata on prey and the defensive responses elicited when this insect is faced with a bird are analysed during all instars. The static component of the strike keeps a constant relationship with the foreleg extension throughout post-embryonic development.
