1. Bei der Anemomenotaxis arbeiten die Windrichtungen perzipierenden, paarigen Sinnesorgane der Antennen - vermutlich die Johnstonschen Organe - als Synergisten zusammen. Der Ausfall der für die Windrichtung spezifischen afferenten Meldungen eines Fühlers führt zu einer Halbierung der Drehtendenzstärke (Abb.I-ll). Es konnten keine Anhaltspunkte gefunden werden, die auf eine direkte zentrale Kompensation dieses Effektes hinweisen. Verschiedene Arten der Ausschaltung, totalc (Abb.2) oder teilweise (Abb. 4) Amputation (bei der der Pedicellus unverletzt bleibt) oder Blockierung des Pedicellus-Flagellumgelenks durch Lackierung (Abb.3), bewirken dieselben Änderungen im Orientierungsverhalten. 2.
