    Olfactory navigation in aquatic gastropods
    Russell C. Wyeth
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2019 222: jeb185843 doi: 10.1242/jeb.185843 Published 6 February 2019

    Behavioural and neuronal basis of olfactory imprinting and kin recognition in larval fish
    Gabriele Gerlach, Kristin Tietje, Daniela Biechl, Iori Namekawa, Gregor Schalm, Astrid Sulmann
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2019 222: jeb189746 doi: 10.1242/jeb.189746 Published 6 February 2019

    Summary: This Review focuses on olfactory imprinting processes that numerous species use to recognize kin or their natal environment later in life.

    There and back again: natal homing by magnetic navigation in sea turtles and salmon
    Kenneth J. Lohmann, Catherine M. F. Lohmann
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2019 222: jeb184077 doi: 10.1242/jeb.184077 Published 6 February 2019

    Summary: New findings indicate that long-distance natal homing in salmon and sea turtles involves an ability to navigate back to the magnetic signature of the home area.

    The internal maps of insects
    Barbara Webb
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2019 222: jeb188094 doi: 10.1242/jeb.188094 Published 6 February 2019

    Summary: Insect behaviour can be explained as a combination of path integration, vector memory and view memory, but what is the evidence that these geometric capabilities form an integrated map?

    The genetics and epigenetics of animal migration and orientation: birds, butterflies and beyond
    Christine Merlin, Miriam Liedvogel
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2019 222: jeb191890 doi: 10.1242/jeb.191890 Published 6 February 2019

    Summary: This Review summarizes our understanding of the genetics and epigenetics of animal migration and outlines a vision to harness both technical advances and comparative approaches to move the field forward.

    Non-Euclidean navigation
    William H. Warren
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2019 222: jeb187971 doi: 10.1242/jeb.187971 Published 6 February 2019

    Summary: The behavioral evidence for Euclidean cognitive maps is unpersuasive. Recent experiments indicate that human spatial knowledge is better described by a labeled graph, which incorporates local distance and angle information.

    Using on-board sound recordings to infer behaviour of free-moving wild animals
    Stefan Greif, Yossi Yovel
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2019 222: jeb184689 doi: 10.1242/jeb.184689 Published 6 February 2019

    The insect central complex and the neural basis of navigational strategies
    Anna Honkanen, Andrea Adden, Josiane da Silva Freitas, Stanley Heinze
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2019 222: jeb188854 doi: 10.1242/jeb.188854 Published 6 February 2019

    Summary: Neural circuits of the insect central complex are involved in guiding multiple navigation strategies, and the emerging core circuit for navigational decisions might provide an overarching framework of central-complex function.

    Celestial navigation in Drosophila
    Timothy L. Warren, Ysabel M. Giraldo, Michael H. Dickinson
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2019 222: jeb186148 doi: 10.1242/jeb.186148 Published 6 February 2019

    Summary: In this Review, we describe how the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster, uses the position of the sun and the pattern of polarized skylight to maintain a constant heading during long-distance dispersal flights.

    The brain behind straight-line orientation in dung beetles
    Basil el Jundi, Emily Baird, Marcus J. Byrne, Marie Dacke
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2019 222: jeb192450 doi: 10.1242/jeb.192450 Published 6 February 2019

    Summary: Insights into the neural mechanisms underlying compass orientation in dung beetles are placed into the context of the mechanisms of other insects.

    Origin and role of path integration in the cognitive representations of the hippocampus: computational insights into open questions
    Francesco Savelli, James J. Knierim
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2019 222: jeb188912 doi: 10.1242/jeb.188912 Published 6 February 2019

    Summary: Path integration is one of the fundamental computations giving rise to the cognitive map and possibly other non-spatial representations in the hippocampal formation and its subcortical afferents.

    Merging information in the entorhinal cortex: what can we learn from robotics experiments and modeling?
    Philippe Gaussier, Jean Paul Banquet, Nicolas Cuperlier, Mathias Quoy, Lise Aubin, Pierre-Yves Jacob, Francesca Sargolini, Etienne Save, Jeffrey L. Krichmar, Bruno Poucet
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2019 222: jeb186932 doi: 10.1242/jeb.186932 Published 6 February 2019

    Summary: Grid cells related to path integration and vision are explained as modulo projections of different cortical activities. The entorhinal cortex appears as a generic merging tool building hash codes.

    Nora S. Newcombe
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2019 222: jeb186460 doi: 10.1242/jeb.186460 Published 6 February 2019

    Summary: Spatial development in humans takes a decade or more to unfold, and involves tuning initial systems in response to changing motor capacities and environmental feedback.

    The navigational nose: a new hypothesis for the function of the human external pyramid
    Lucia F. Jacobs
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2019 222: jeb186924 doi: 10.1242/jeb.186924 Published 6 February 2019

    Summary: The human nose respires and sniffs yet current theory addresses only its respiratory function; the nose may also allow stereo olfaction and may have evolved for this in early Homo.

Read & Publish participation extends worldwide

“Being able to publish Open Access articles free of charge means that my article gets maximum exposure and has maximum impact, and that all my peers can read it regardless of the agreements that their universities have with publishers.”

Professor Roi Holzman (Tel Aviv University) shares his experience of publishing Open Access as part of our growing Read & Publish initiative. We now have over 60 institutions in 12 countries taking part – find out more and view our full list of participating institutions.
