“…Male Diptera commonly chase and accost prospective mates in flight (Land & Collett, 1974;Collett & Land, 1975;Wehrhahn, 1979;Gibson, 1985), a facet of their behaviour that has attracted attention because of the potential it provides for analysing the mechanisms and precision of vision and visually controlled behaviour.
