How can larval #competition for space, adult #reproductive #timing and the #tides interact to produce different timing strains, aka #chronotypes, of the marine insect #Clunio?

Session #EVOLUTION (2pm, AM4)
D Doležel: #clock gene evolution
MP Shahandeh: #circadian #plasticity
S Reece: #parasite #rhythms
A Schneider: #olfactory #membrane #clockworks
A Coric: L-Cry & #circalunar #timing
C Kyriacou: Cry & #magnetic fields
Hosts: E Nagoshi & T Kaiser
Curious how the #moon is perceived, controls #development, and may drive #speciation in a #marine #insect?

One week to go until #EBRS2025 in #Lübeck!
We are very much looking forward to exciting #chronobiology!

… and then time these hours to the lowest low tides. These tides always occur at full and new #moon. Clunio has an internal timer, a so-called #circalunar #clock. It enables the midges to predict #moon phases and allows adults to only emerge at the right #time.
