To our surprise, the central clock neurons responded to dim-light stimulation of the compound eyes even in the absence of histamine, the only known neurotransmitter produced there.

Bees actually have five eyes: two compound eyes and three simple eyes, called ocelli. The two compound eyes are those huge brown-black ovals that seem to take up most of their tiny heads, and they ...
