As would be expected for a fly, the eye is much larger than that of the honeybee.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOur analysis revealed it as a typical fly visual system with some specialised differences related to detection of movement and foraging among flowers for nectar. Eristalis does not mimic the honeybee in any way except appearance. The life histories are totally different. Eristalis has an aquatic larva that lives in nutritious rubbish, in which it has travelled independently around the world in bilge water of ships.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 24\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.07 x 9.61 x 6.69 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 26, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48265560457465,"sku":"9781914934759","price":17.28,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/cv5C6V1VG89781914934759.webp?v=1775784437","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/vision-of-the-honeybee-mimic-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
