Nature of the Lepidopteron sensing mechanism: possible photochemical response
1973
THE complex nature of the moth sensing problem has been demonstrated1–4. Here we suggest that the interaction of a moth with its radiation environment may be explained by a chemical change in metabolism induced by the radiation. We have tested this hypothesis by studying the temperature dependence of the behavioural response of several moth species to a black-light source and coherent submillimetre wave radiation.
