Proprioception in Insects [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Biology, 1938 ABSTRACTConcentrations of hair sensilla have been noted by a number of authors in the joints of the insect body and limbs. Special groups of such sensilla in the form of “hair plates” are described from three positions on the legs of Periplaneta americana. The hairs of the hair plates are mechanical sense organs with a slow rate of adaptation.
