Caterpillar Setae: Insulation for an Ectotherm

Science, 1981
Gypsy moth caterpillars have long, soft setae distributed along the lateral portions of the body, but only short, stiff setae on the dorsal surface. Setae act as selective insulation for caterpillars by reducing the rates of convective heat exchange without affecting the rates of radiative heat exchange.

The structure of the digital setae of lizards

Journal of Morphology, 1965
AbstractLight and electron microscope studies of the digital lamellar setae of geckos and anoline lizards demonstrate that the free ends of the setae consist of flattened spatulas of less than 1 μ in width. The anoline setae are simple structures usually less than 30 μ in length and with a single terminal spatula to each seta.

Nematode Setae as Mechanoreceptors

Nematologica, 1974
The somatic setae of Chromadorina bioculata and Enoplus communis have been examined with the electron microscope. Their structure is in agreement with their function as mechanoreceptors. The cuticular elements of the setae are weakened at their base and they appear to pivot in a cuticular depression.

Foil-setae, a new type of setae in the family Isotomidae (Collembola)

Pedobiologia, 2002
A group of specialized setae on the sixth abdominal segment (foil setae) of Isotomidae are described. A survey of more than 100 species of family Isotomidae shows these setae to occur in certain species of several genera of subfamily Anurophorinae s.str. They are probably derived from macrosetae and are characterized by their unique shape.

Intoxicaciones agudas por setas

Revista Clínica Española, 2009
The collection and consumption of wild mushrooms by individuals with no mycological knowledge and their accidental ingestion by minors are responsible for a growing increase of poisonings. It is not usual for emergency care of a patient affected by mushroom poisoning to be based on recognition of the responsible species of fungus or access to a sample ...

Poisonous setae on a Baltic amber caterpillar

Arthropod Structure & Development, 2019
The knobbed setae on a small caterpillar in 45-55 million years old [Eocene] Baltic amber were studied and characterized as urticating, with evidence of liquid release implying the production of poisons. It is presumed that the caterpillar had been disturbed just prior to falling into the resin, as some of its setae showed defensive responses.

Seta Formation in Colletotrichum spp. [PDF]

Nature, 1964
THE production of setae during the formation of the acervulus in the genus Colletotrichum has for some time been regarded as of doubtful value in distinguishing between the genera Colletotrichum and Gloeosporium. Schilling1 suggested that an investigation into the factors affecting seta production would help greatly in the solution of these taxonomic ...

Hooked setae: tests of the anchor hypothesis

Invertebrate Biology, 2000
Abstract. We tested the hypothesis that hooked setae function as anchors in three species of tubiculous polychaetes (Eudistylia vancouveri, Schizobranchia insignis, and Owenia fusiformis). All maintained position within their tubes when exposed to high pressures (up to 100–200 kPa) applied from the posterior direction (where it would tend to cause the

The search for extraterrestrial artifacts (SETA)

Acta Astronautica, 1985
Abstract The rationale for the use of interstellar artifacts by intelligent life in the universe is described. The advantages of using interstellar probes as a means of exploration and communication are presented and shown to be significant enough to counter the time, energy, and technology arguments generally raised against contact via ...
