Sensilla on the maxillary palps of Helicoverpa armigera caterpillars: in search of the CO2-receptor
Tissue and Cell, 1996The ultrastructure of sensilla on the maxillary palps of Helicoverpa armigera caterpillars has been investigated in order ot find candidates for CO(2)-receptors. The following sensilla are found on the palps: a) 8 chemosensory pegs at the tip; b), a large distal pore plate; c), a smaller proximal pore plate; d), a digitiform organ; e), a campaniform ...

Maxillary palps can mediate taste rejection of plant allelochemicals by caterpillars
Journal of Comparative Physiology A: Neuroethology, Sensory, Neural, and Behavioral Physiology, 1998All caterpillars possess a pair of maxillary palps that "drum" the surface of foods during feeding. These chemosensory organs contain over 65% of a caterpillar's taste receptor cells, but their functional significance remains largely unknown. We examined their role in rejection of plant allelochemicals, using the tobacco hornworm (Manduca sexta) as a ...

Structural and functional aspects of sense organs on the maxillary palps of Calliphora vicina
Journal of Insect Physiology, 1976Abstract The maxillary palps of the blowfly Calliphora vicina Robineau-Desvoidy are shown to bear, in addition to long mechanoreceptive hairs, small sensilla basiconica ccontaining three neurons. The electrical responses obtained with a simple qualitative olfactometer indicate an olfactory function.

The sense organs on the antennae and maxillary palps of male Aedes atropalpus (Coquillett), Aedes aegypti (L.), Culex territans Walker, and Culex pipiens L. are similar to those observed on female culicines including water, olfactory, and carbon dioxide receptors. Although males have the same variety, they have fewer of each type of sense organ.

Sensillar Ultrastructure of the Antennae and Maxillary Palps of the Warble Fly Oestromyia leporina (Pallas, 1778) (Diptera: Oestridae) [PDF]
InsectsDespite the development of molecular techniques, morphological phylogeny still remains integral in underpinning the relationship between some clades of Calyptratae, especially the ones with fast radiation, such as those in Oestridae (Diptera: Brachycera),

Sensilla on antenna and maxillary palp of Neoceratitis asiatica (Diptera: Tephritidae)
Micron, 2020Neoceratitis asiatica (Diptera: Tephritidae) is a disastrous pest for wolfberry production in China. In our preliminary field trapping experiment, both female and male N. asiatica adults were captured by male-produced sex attractant. To provide a solid background for studying mechanism of olfaction, the sensilla of antenna and maxillary palp of N ...

The maxillary palp of Aedes aegypti, a model of multisensory integration
Insect Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2014Female yellow-fever mosquitoes, Aedes aegypti, are obligate blood-feeders and vectors of the pathogens that cause dengue fever, yellow fever and Chikungunya. This feeding behavior concludes a series of multisensory events guiding the mosquito to its host from a distance.

The maxillary palp of Drosophila : ultrastructure and physiology depends on the lozenge gene
Journal of Comparative Physiology A: Sensory, Neural, and Behavioral Physiology, 1997The ultrastructure and physiology of the maxillary palp of Drosophila melanogaster have been studied in wild-type and lozenge mutants. Olfactory physiology in the maxillary palp is shown to depend upon the lozenge(lz) gene. Reduced response amplitudes were recorded for all odorants tested, and the physiological defect was shown to map to the lz locus ...

Maxillary Palp: A Second Olfactory Organ of Drosophila
1994A wide variety of animals, including many amphibians, reptiles, and mammals, have an olfactory organ and another chemosensory organ, the vomeronasal organ [1–3]. This second organ is associated with pheromone detection and the modulation of sexual behavior.

Journal of Medical Entomology, 2016
A scanning electron microscopy investigation of the antenna and maxillary palp of the adult of Sarcophaga tibialis Macquart (Diptera: Sarcophagidae), a species of medical, veterinary, and forensic relevance, is presented for the first time. Adults of both sexes used in this study were obtained from larvae collected in a case of traumatic myiasis in a ...
