Scatter Plot from Scientific Research

The zigzag path of an ant trained to face a black-white edge. The ant makes a rapid turn (saccade-like turn) to fixate the edge when the edge is made to jump (bottom right). Top: the phase of the path is colour coded. The turns (saccade-like turns) only occur at the peaks of the ant’s path towards a feeder (+). Each saccade-like turn is shown as a dot with its proximity to a peak colour coded (bottom left). Even when delayed by several cycles, saccade-like turns still occur close to the peaks (adapted from58).
