Electrophysiological adaptations of insect photoreceptors and their elementary responses to diurnal and nocturnal lifestyles

Nocturnal vision in insects depends on the ability to reliably detect scarce photons. Nocturnal insects tend to have intrinsically more sensitive and larger rhabdomeres than diurnal species. However, large rhabdomeres have relatively high membrane capacitance (C(m)), which can strongly low-pass filt...
