Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2023 To maintain the eusociality of a colony, ants recognize subtle differences in colony-specific sets of cuticular hydrocarbons (CHCs). The CHCs are received by female-specific antennal basiconic sensilla and processed in specific brain regions. However, it

Nanopore formation in the cuticle of an insect olfactory sensillum [PDF]
Current Biology, 2018 Summary Nanometer-level patterned surface structures form the basis of biological functions including superhydrophobicity, structural coloration, and light absorption [1-3]. In insects, the cuticle overlying the olfactory sensilla has multiple small (50–200-nm diameter) pores [4-8], which are supposed to function as a

, 2022 Most arthropods rely heavily on their sense of smell (i.e., olfaction) to locate and discriminate among mates, food, and egg laying sites. The odors emanating from these resources are composed of blends of volatile compounds that are detected by ...

Dynamical modeling of the moth pheromone-sensitive olfactory receptor neuron within its sensillar environment. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 In insects, olfactory receptor neurons (ORNs), surrounded with auxiliary cells and protected by a cuticular wall, form small discrete sensory organs--the sensilla.

The variability of antennal sensilla in Naucoridae (Heteroptera: Nepomorpha)
Scientific Reports, 2021 The morphology and distribution of sensilla on the surface of the antennae of the naucorids’ species were studied via scanning electron microscopy. Eleven types of sensilla were identified regarding specific sensory modalities, based on their cuticular ...

Central projections of gustatory receptor neurons in the medial and the lateral sensilla styloconica of Helicoverpa armigera larvae. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Food selection behavior of lepidopteran larvae is predominantly governed by the activation of taste neurons present in two sensilla styloconica located on the galea of the maxilla.

Single Sensillum Recordings for Locust Palp Sensilla Basiconica [PDF]
Journal of Visualized Experiments, 2018 The palps of locust mouthparts are considered to be conventional gustatory organs that play an important role in a locust's food selection, especially for the detection of non-volatile chemical cues through sensilla chaetica (previously named terminal sensilla or crested sensilla).
