Fig. 3. Lift evoked by the hawkmoth in response to large-field image motion. Lift is defined as net vertical force; zero lift corresponds to mean body weight. The image was oscillated up and down in steps of constant velocity (C). Resultant lift responses, averaged across animals, are plotted for intact moths (A) (N=9) and for moths with stretch receptors (SRs) ablated (B) (N=10). Thick lines plot mean force, and thin lines plot ± S.D.
