Discordant timing between antennae disrupts sun compass orientation in migratory monarch butterflies
To navigate during their long-distance migration, monarch butterflies (Danaus plexippus) use a time-compensated sun compass. The sun compass timing elements reside in light-entrained circadian clocks in the antennae. Here we show that either antenna is sufficient for proper time compensation. Howeve...
