@anna-stoeckl.bsky.social‬ from @uni-konstanz.de‬ reveals how insect pollinators interpret floral patterns to guide foraging. From hawkmoth vision to neural templates—this talk will bridge behaviour, neuroethology & sensory biology. 🦋🪻

PhD student Lena Schmitz from the museum presents her discovery of a bone layer at the Bromacker excavation site.

Preparator Moritz Maier from the museum shows a small reptile skull he uncovered during the dig.

Bachelor student Moritz Hinze from the museum holds up a small fossil skeleton he found at the Bromacker site.

Welcome to the "Permian Park"! 😉🦎

This year’s #Bromacker excavation revealed bones, tiny skeletons and even volcanic ash – offering insights into life 290 million years ago. Now, the #fossils head into the project labs for preparation and selected CT scans. 🌍

Finally taking spider 🕷️ sleep 💤 to the wild! Currently in QLD, Australia, filming Portia fimbriata sleep in the field-which disturbances are they facing and how does their wild sleep compare to lab sleep? Stay tuned! 🙃 ps- terrible place to work 🤭 @nadjageiger.bsky.social @mherberstein.bsky.social

How does personality shape ecological roles?🐦
A new Galápagos study shows that more exploratory birds use a broader foraging niche-linking consistent behavior with ecological flexibility.
