Die Wüstenameise, Cataglyphis, orientiert sich vor allem mittels Wegintegration. Über einen Heimvektor, den sie aus Distanz und Richtung einzelner Wegabschnitte berechnet, kann sie auf dem kürzesten Weg zu ihrem Ausgangspunkt zurückkehren. Zur Bestimmung der zurückgelegten Strecken verwendet sie einen Schrittintegrator. Die Laufrichtung wird hauptsächlich über Himmelsinformationen (Polarisationsmuster, Sonnenstand und Spektral- und Intensitätsgradienten) definiert. In dieser Arbeit über die Orientierungsfähigkeit von Cataglyphis fortis wird die Rolle des Polarisationskompasses bei der Bestimmung der Laufrichtung untersucht. In verschiedenen Versuchen wurden der Polarisationskompass der Ameise mit Hilfe eines Polarisationsfilters gezielt m...
