Abstract
Search behaviour of the fruitfly in a choice between inaccessible targets, or ‘figures’, depends on the spatial and temporal context of the visual input. An account of the attempted flights and runs towards these figures was derived from the wingbeat control responses during tethered flight in a simulator, or obtained by automatic tracking during free walk in an arena. The present results demonstrate new aspects of search strategies in insects.
