Proboscis lateralis is a rare craniofacial malformation for which no embryological basis has been established. The condition presents with a tubular, nose like structure arising from the medial canthal area or orbit roof. We describe here such a case that was surgically treated.

Transcriptional responses of Aedes aegypti chemosensory tissues in response to volatile DEET and citronella oil. [PDF]
Aedes aegypti females were significantly repelled by both volatile DEET and citronella oil in comparison to control (ethanol‐exposed) mosquitoes. Global gene expression changes were largest in the mosquito mouthparts, with notable downregulation of the three subunits comprising the mosquito CO2 receptor (Gr1, 2 and 3).

The role of proboscis of the malaria vector mosquito
Background The proboscis is an essential head appendage in insects that processes gustatory code during food intake, particularly useful considering that blood-sucking arthropods routinely reach vessels under the host skin using this proboscis as a probe.
