Phobotaxis
On the bacterial level, phobotaxis is regularly seen in accordance with phototaxis, random movement in response to light. In the eukaryote Euglena, positive phototaxis and positive phobotaxis exhibit nearly the same action spectra, providing more evidence for their association wikipedia.org

Taxis
This reaction or behavior is called positive phototaxis since phototaxis refers to a response to light and the organism is moving towards the stimulus. by a microscope, when entering darkness signals the cell to reverse direction and reenter the light; a second type of positive phototaxis is true phototaxis wikipedia.org

Phototaxis is a common behavior to many species, including insects but not only ( _e.g._ most fishes do phototaxis). Phototaxis is thus a very strong innate reflex: at the neural scale in many species it is "hardwired".
