The 29 pages that link to Compound eye, each with the reason it gives.

• RetinaCompared with: Its many facets differ from the vertebrate retina’s continuous neural sheet behind a lens.

• CrustaceaRelated: Compound eyes provide vision in numerous crustaceans, including crabs and shrimp.

• ButterflyRelated: Butterflies use compound eyes to detect movement, color, and polarized light.

• Horseshoe crabRelated: Its compound eyes are among the animal’s several light-sensitive organs.

• DragonflyRelated: Dragonflies' large compound eyes provide wide fields of view.

• AnomalocarisRelated: Its large compound eyes suggest vision was a major part of Anomalocaris’s predatory equipment.

• ArthropodaRelated: Many arthropods detect motion and patterns with compound eyes.

• OdonataRelated: Large compound eyes give adult odonates broad fields of view for detecting prey.

• Mantis shrimpNarrower topic: Mantis shrimp vision is built from compound eyes with distinctive regional specializations.

• ProsomaRelated: Compound eyes occur on the prosoma of horseshoe crabs and some other chelicerates.

• BeetleRelated: Beetle compound eyes support vision suited to diverse light and habitat conditions.

• OpabiniaRelated: Opabinia’s five eyes were prominent sensory structures, though their detailed function remains uncertain.

• ZoeaRelated: Zoeae commonly have conspicuous eyes that aid orientation in open water.

• EyeCompared with: Its many facets form images differently from the single-lens vertebrate eye.

• RadiodontaRelated: Fossil radiodont eyes show that some species had complex vision.

• MeganeuraRelated: Large compound eyes are characteristic of dragonfly-like insects and aided visual tracking.

• DamselflyRelated: Damselflies use their large compound eyes to detect prey and avoid threats.

• Ghost crabRelated: Raised eyes give ghost crabs a wide view while much of the body stays near the sand.

• HouseflyRelated: The housefly's compound eyes provide broad visual coverage and detect rapid movement.

• Human eyeCompared with: Its many facets form images differently from the human eye’s single-lens optics.

• LeanchoiliaRelated: Eye anatomy in fossil arthropods helps reconstruct sensory capacities in Leanchoilia's ecosystem.

• Scutigera coleoptrataRelated: Its unusually developed eyes distinguish it from most centipedes, which have simpler eyes or none.

• Simple eyeCompared with: Its many ommatidia contrast with the simpler organization of a typical simple eye.

• ArthropodologyRelated: Compound eyes are a distinctive sensory structure studied across arthropod groups.

• DinocarididaRelated: Fossil eyes in some radiodonts reveal sophisticated vision in early marine ecosystems.

• EurypterusRelated: Eurypterus had compound eyes that provide clues to its visual capabilities.

• Southern hawkerRelated: Its large compound eyes help the hawker track prey in flight.

• TabanidaeRelated: The large, often colorful eyes are among the most conspicuous tabanid features.

• ThylacocephalaRelated: Fossils preserve their prominent stalked eyes, whose structure informs reconstructions of vision.
