| Taken together, the antennae and their sensilla are the insect's window on the external world. |
|
| Short sensilla on the maxillary and labial palps, serve to recognize pheromone and touch when the male mounts the female. |
|
| The head is analogous to a statolith, the movements of which are monitored by fields of hair sensilla located on the head, neck, and prothorax. |
|
| It is hard to imagine a clearer, simpler demonstration of how important thermal sensilla are to the insects' feeding routine. |
|
| Drosophila adults have 2000 chemosensory neurons that reside within segregated compartments called sensilla. |
|
| The sensory cells are organized into five external fields of campaniform sensilla and one internal chordotonal organ. |
|
| In insects the length or complexity of the antennae is a reflection of the numbers of multiporous sensilla. |
|
| Within each pit are 60 to 70 sensors called sensilla in insects. |
|
| And that is what he and his colleague Martin Müller have now done. Jewel beetles detect fires using receptors called sensilla. |
|
| Exceedingly sensitive organs called sensilla are concentrated in organs of hearing. |
|
| In some invertebrates sensilla are found all over the body, including on the legs, cerci, and wing margins. |
|
| Many of the sensory neurons belong to basiconic sensilla, each of which consists of a short tactile hair with one mechanosensory neuron and four chemosensory neurons. |
|
| Phasmid and inner labial sensilla do not appear to be essential for chemotaxis. |
|
| Four structures found in insects have been considered as possibly serving an auditory function: hair sensilla, antennae, cercal organs, and tympanal organs. |
|
| Morphological descriptions of antennal, palpal and tarsal sensilla provide the basis for understanding mole cricket chemosensory input. |
|
| All trochanters had anteroventral series of natotory sensilla although this series was less developed on the proleg. |
|
| Compared with the left antenna, the right contains more sensilla dedicated to smell, known to play a key role in honeybee communication. |
|
| They zoomed in on the proboscis' so-called sensilla, hair-like structures that serve as the fly's taste buds. |
|
| They coated them with a dense three-dimensionally ordered layer of titanium dioxide nanotubes oriented vertically, like the sensilla. |
|
| The relationship between chemical stimulus and the number of olfactory sensilla has been demonstrated. |
|
|
|
| For example, in the polyphemus moth a male with plumose antennae has over 60,000 multiporous sensilla on one antenna, whereas a female with slender antennae has only about 13,000 sensilla on a single antenna. |
|
| Smaller type of sensillum present on anterior margin of cephalic region, abundant in interspaces between larger sensilla. |
|
| The prothorax was characterized by small paired sternites and a notum bearing hair-like sensilla anteriorly and on lateral margins. |
|
| In insects requiring increased sensitivity, the antennae are branched, providing a larger surface area on which more sensilla can be accommodated. |
|
| Olfactory sensilla on antennae of pine weevil, Hylobius abietis. |
|
| There was no great variation in the width of sensilla, where as sensillum with a pore or opening to the exterior were measured and classified based on their diameter. |
|
| Fine structure of antennal sensilla coeloconica of culicine mosquitoes. |
|
| The types and abundance of sensilla on mole cricket antennae differ greatly from those found in above-ground orthopterans, such as Tetrigidae and Acrididae. |
|
| The structures and functions of the sensilla of EGW adults still need to be further investigated by immuno-electron microscopy and by single-cell receptor potentiometry. |
