Abstract
We present a digital atlas of the glomeruli in the antennal lobe (AL) of the honeybee, Apis mellifera, which is accessible to the scientific community via the Internet. The atlas allows the identification of glomeruli in preparations where the glomeruli can be recognized, be it sections or wholemounts. The high resolution of the anatomical data upon which the atlas is based, and its electronic form, will prove to be an important tool for anybody involved in the study of the honeybee antennal lobe. Its accessibility via the internet is a step towards interactive and freely accessible databases of animal brains.
