From the rapidly expanding spiral waves exhibited by colonies of giant honeybees to the ripples of light that cross a turning school of fish, synchrony proves essential to the lives of group-living organisms. Here I consider what we know about the mechanisms and adaptive value of synchronization among animals, as well as outlining open questions that, if answered, could advance our understanding of the functional complexity of animal collectives.
从庞大的蜜蜂群体中展现出的快速扩张的螺旋波，到穿过游动鱼群的光的涟漪，同步性对于群体生物的生存至关重要。在这里，我将探讨我们对动物之间同步机制和适应价值的了解，以及概述可能会推进我们对动物群体功能复杂性理解的开放性问题。
