Table 2. Predictions of insect walking vectors.

If visual stimulus is presented at 90° and odour at 180°, and assuming beetle is motivated to seek food. All angles in degrees.

Nature of visual stimulus Period 1 (visual alone) Period 2 (visual + air) Period 3 (visual + odour 1) Period 4 (visual + odour 2) Period 5
Attractive 90 Between 90 and 180 but closer to 90 Between 90 and 180 As period 3 90
Neutral Random 180 180 180 Random
Repellent 270 180–270 180–270 180–270 270
