Abstract
Direction communication experiments, when controlled against unilateral visitation of trained foragers at the experimental site, exhibited no evidence supporting the precision of communication suggested in the dance "language" hypothesis. Results compare well with those which might be expected on the basis of the geometric arrangement of the feeding dishes.This publication has 10 references indexed in Scilit:
