Visual Ecology
Visual ecology can be defined as the study of how animals use the information gathered by their visual systems in their survival strategies. How can they visually find the appropriate habitats? How did their vision and photoreceptors specialize for a given task, such as mating, navigation, communication or feeding. We study the visual ecology of arthropods, particularly aquatic insects and try to utilize our results in nature conservation.
