I guess that's true for mammalian eyes, but what about insect eyes? If the bumble brain only hold 200k neurons, how many do their eyes have on board?

  ~7000 elements per compound eye according to this page: https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/brookfieldfarmhoney.wordpress.com/2013/01/30/the-eyes-have-it-honeybee-eyes/amp/ https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/brookfieldfarmhoney.wordpress...

    That's individual lenses, right? But it says that each lens has its own photoreceptor(s). So that is a multiple of 7000.

      So if that's three photo receptors per facet, already each eye is rivaling the neuron count of the brain.
