Both of these components are repeated several times (1 to > 100) within the same dance. Additionally, both these components vary within a dance. Here we discuss some causes and consequences of intra-dance and inter-dance angular variation and advocate revisiting von Frisch and Lindauer's earlier work to gain a better understanding of honey bee foraging ecology.e22298 - ? page(s)application/pdfenIn Copyrightanimal communicationforaginghoney beesignal noisewaggle danceArticle - Refereedhttps://doi.org/10.4161/cib.2229861Couvillon, MJ [0000-0002-0458-298X]
