Journal ArticleDOI
Ultrastructure of the contact chemoreceptors of Apis mellifera L. (Hymenoptera : Apidae)
A.T. Whitehead,Joseph R. Larsen +1 more
TL;DR: Transmission electron microscope studies showed that sensilla chaetica of different sizes found on the glossa, labial palps, galeae, antennae and tarsi of the worker honey bee are similar in ultrastructure to taste receptors previously described in other insects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Morphology and distribution of sensilia on the cephalic appendages, tarsi and ovipositor of the European sunflower moth, Homoeosoma nebulella Den. & Schiff. (Lepidoptera : Pyralidae)
TL;DR: Sensilla on male and female antennae, mouthparts, tarsi and on the ovipositor of the European sunflower moth, Homoeosoma nebulella (Lepidoptera : Pyralidae) have been investigated by means of scanning electron microscope and the role of sensilla in the Oviposition site selection is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sensory organs of the thoracic legs of the moth Manduca sexta.
Karla S. Kent,Laura M. Griffin +1 more
TL;DR: Sensory elements of larval and adult legs are characterized using scanning electron microscopy to view the external sensilla and cobalt staining to examine innervation by underlying sensory neurons so that the contribution of new sensory inputs to the changes in behaviors is determined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Distribution of chemo- and mechanoreceptors on the tarsi and ovipositor of female European grapevine moth, Lobesia botrana
Nevile Maher,Denis Thiéry +1 more
TL;DR: The number, distribution, and function of sensilla located on different organs of Lobesia botrana (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) females using scanning electron microscopy, selective staining, and contact electrophysiology are described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tarsal morphology and attachment ability of the codling moth Cydia pomonella L. (Lepidoptera, Tortricidae) to smooth surfaces
Loris Al Bitar,Dagmar Voigt,Dagmar Voigt,Claus P. W. Zebitz,Stanislav N. Gorb,Stanislav N. Gorb +5 more
TL;DR: The attachment system of C. pomonella is rather robust against physico-chemical properties of the substrate and is able to achieve a very good attachment on vertical and horizontal substrata.

The Physiology and Histology of the Contact Chemoreceptors of the Blowfly
TL;DR: The positive identification of chemoreceptors makes possible more precise analyses of contact chemoreception and is manifestly a prerequisite to any understanding of the process.
Journal ArticleDOI
The fine structure of the labellar chemosensory hairs of the blowfly, Phormia regina Meig
TL;DR: Physiological evidence supports the morphological evidence that more than one species of hair is present on the labellum of the blowfly Phormia regina.
