Lisa Taylor, Nate Morehouse and I are organizing a symposium entitled "Color signals in terrestrial invertebrates: integrating senders and receivers" at ISBE next week. I collected the symposium abstracts here for easy reference, in order of presentation. The full abstract book of ISBE 2014 can be found at http://www.isbe2014.com.

It's conference season! Cole Gilbert will present our Cornell-based work on retinal movements of freely moving jumping spiders at the Congress of Neuroethology in Sapporo. The title is "An insight into situational gaze movements of jumping spiders". At (almost) the same time, I will give a talk about color vision in jumping spiders at ISBE in New York, opening the color signaling symposium. The title is "Color vision in a colorful predator:  light path absorbance and retinal sensitivities in jumping spiders".
