Example of records used in determination of latency of photic inhibition via "eyes of spontaneous flashing Photuris. Upper trace in each record registers flashes and lower monitors light source. Latency, the interval between arrows, is measured as time between start of illumination and time of next succeeding expected flash, indicated as vertical bars, as measured from inter-flash interval of several preceding flashes. In 1A, the light goes on insufficiently early to inhibit one flash, completely inhibits the next and possibly partially inhibits and delays a third. Better examples of partial inhibition are shown in IB.
