Drosophila adults have 2000 chemosensory neurons that reside within segregated compartments called sensilla. |
In insects the length or complexity of the antennae is a reflection of the numbers of multiporous sensilla. |
Short sensilla on the maxillary and labial palps, serve to recognize pheromone and touch when the male mounts the female. |
Within each pit are 60 to 70 sensors called sensilla in insects. |
It is hard to imagine a clearer, simpler demonstration of how important thermal sensilla are to the insects' feeding routine. |
Exceedingly sensitive organs called sensilla are concentrated in organs of hearing. |
