This book details the embryology and structure of the compound eye of the honey bee. The author, an experienced zoologist, presents their findings after studying the gradual growth and development of the bee's eye. Their work adds new evidence to the understanding of insect vision and the evolution of the compound eye. The author demonstrates that the various cells of the eye are not homologous to other sense organs, but rather have arisen from an accumulation of light-sensitive epidermal cells. This book will appeal to entomologists, zoologists, and anyone interested in the fascinating world of insect vision.
