昆虫复眼形态结构及感光机制研究进展

Progress in research of compound eyes morphological structure and photosensitive mechanism in insects

复眼是昆虫的主要视觉器官,昆虫复眼形态、结构的研究是理解昆虫感光的基础。本文从昆虫复眼的外部形态、内部微观结构和功能以及对光的感受机制作一简要综述,且对今后昆虫复眼的研究方向进行了展望。

Compound eyes is the main visual organ in insects,The study on morphology,structure of insect compound eyes is fundamental to understanding insect sensitivity to light. The article summarized the recent studies and progress in compound eye＇s external morphology,internal microstructure and function,and the photoreception mechanism in insects. Also the future research direction of the compound eyes in insects is discussed.
