The terminal two antennal segments of male Aedes aegypti bear the same variety of sensillar types as the female's antenna, namely, sensilla chaetica, sensilla coeloconica, sensilla ampullacea, grooved pegs, and four types of sensilla trichodea: long and short, pointed-tipped trichodea and blunt-tipped types I and II. Each type of sensillum has a similar fine structure in both sexes. Of the 514 neurones which innervate these sensilla in the male, 91% are olfactory receptors, 7% mechanoreceptors, and 2% thermoreceptors. The total number of neurones in the male is about four times fewer than in the female, but the ratio of those responding to the various stimuli is similar.The sensilla studied herein probably mediate stimuli involved in location of suitable resting sites and nectar meals. In addition they are apparently involved in location of vertebrates as recent studies indicate that certain male mosquitoes are attracted to hosts to bring them into the proximity of the females for mating. This host finding behaviour of males would explain why they have the same sprectrum of sensillar types as do females. 相似文献

A comparison was performed of the antennal sensilla of females of four chalcid wasp species Ceratosolen emarginatus Mayr, 1906, Sycophaga sp., Philotrypesis longicaudata Mayr, 1906, and Sycoscapter roxburghi Joseph, 1957, which are specific and obligatory associated with Ficus auriculata (Lour, 1790). The four species exhibit different oviposition strategies in the fig ovules where their offspring hatch and develop. Antennal sensilla morphology was evaluated using scanning electron microscopy. Females of the four species present 11 morphologically similar types of sensilla: trichoid sensilla, sensilla obscura, chaetica sensilla 1 and 2, which all have mechanosensory functions; uniporous basiconic sensilla, which are presumably contact chemosensilla; basiconic capitate peg sensilla, coeloconic sensilla 1, multiporous basiconic and placoid sensilla, which may be regarded as olfactory sensilla, and coeloconic sensilla 2 and 3, which are presumed to be proprioreceptors or pressure receptors. The four species have significant differences in the abundance and arrangement of trichoid sensilla and chaetica sensilla 1 on the flagellum. The coeloconic sensilla and sensilla obscura only occur on the antennae of C. emarginatus that enter figs. The chemosensilla which are presumably involved in host discrimination, i.e., basiconic sensilla, multiporous placoid sensilla and basiconic capitate peg sensilla, are similar in shape and configuration, although they present some differences in abundance. These findings provide practical information on the adaptations of fig wasps and the relationship between multisensory antennae and functions in fig wasp behaviour. 相似文献

Formal models have shown that diel variation in female mate searching is likely to have profound influence on daily signalling routines of males. In studies on acoustic communication, the temporal patterns of the receivers'' signal evaluation should thus be taken into account when investigating the functions of signalling. In bird species in which diel patterns of signalling differ between males singing to defend a territory or to attract a mate, the diel patterns of mate and territory prospecting are suggested to depend on the sex of the prospector. We simulated newly arriving female nightingales (Luscinia megarhynchos) by translocating radio-tagged females to our study site. The mate-searching females prospected the area mostly at night, visiting several singing males. The timing of female prospecting corresponded to the period of the night when the singing activity of unpaired males was higher than that of paired males. In contrast to females, territory searching males have been shown to prospect territories almost exclusively during the dawn chorus. At dawn, both paired and unpaired males sang at high rates, suggesting that in contrast to nocturnal singing, dawn singing is important to announce territory occupancy to prospecting males. In the nightingale, the sex-specific timing of prospecting corresponded to the differential signalling routines of paired and unpaired males. The temporal patterns in the behaviour of signallers and receivers thus appear to be mutually adapted. 相似文献

As insect vectors of pine wood nematodes, Monochamus alternatus Hope and Monochamus saltuarius Gebler have different levels of attractiveness to semiochemicals. Although active use of chemical communication in both species is well known, there was no report on the differences in morphology and distribution of antennal sensilla between the two Monochamus species. The present study was carried out to explore the morphology, distribution, and ultrastructure of antennal sensilla of the two species using scanning and transmission electron microscopy. The overall shapes of the antennae were not different between M. alternatus and M. saltuarius. However, both M. alternatus and M. saltuarius exhibited sexual dimorphism overall. The antennae of each species were composed of the scape, pedicel, and nine flagellomeres, with four morphological types of sensilla: trichodea, basiconica, chaetica, and coeloconica. The four types occurred in varying numbers and distributions. The sensilla chaetica type was the most abundant in both species. Three types of sensilla (trichodea, basiconica, and chaetica) could be subdivided according to the two Monochamus species; sensilla trichodea could be divided into two subtypes, and sensilla basiconica and sensilla chaetica into three. All sensilla basiconica subtypes were multiporous, indicating that their primary function was olfactory. Sensilla trichodea subtype 2 was uniporous, indicating that the function of these sensilla might be gustatory. The morphological information obtained in our study provides a basis for future investigation of the sensory physiological function of each type of sensilla in the two species. 相似文献

Considering that sensilla constitute important functional elements of sensory systems in insects, the aim of this study was to determine the type and distribution of sensilla in the antennae of Hylamorpha elegans Burmeister examined by scanning electron microscopy. Hylamorpha elegans antennae are lamellate and consist of the scape, pedicel, and flagellum. The antennal club of this beetle consists of three terminal plates: proximal, middle, and distal lamellae. Four types of sensilla were observed in the lamellae from both sexes: sensilla trichoidea, chaetica, coeloconica, and placodea. Antennal length was larger in males than in females, and significant sexual variation in the number of sensilla placodea and sensilla coeloconica was observed. 相似文献

The morphology of the antennal sensilla of both male and female Habrobracon hebetor (Say) (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) is described using Scanning Electron Microscopy complemented with Transmission Electron Microscopy.
Five types of innervated sensilla as well as uninnervated microtrichia were found. These types are: sensilla trichodea; s.
chaetica; s. basiconica; s. coeloconica; and s. placodea. No differences in shape, basic structure, and types of antennal
sensilla were found between males and females. The types of sensilla of both sexes of H. hebetor were compared with what has been described in other parasitic Hymenoptera, and their putative functions are discussed with
reference to their morphology, distribution and ultrastructure. 相似文献

The recent discovery of the use of visual cues for mate choice by nocturnal acoustic species raises the important, and to date unaddressed, question of how these signals affect the outcome of mate choice predicted by female preference for male calls. In order to address this question, we presented female Hyla arborea tree frogs with a series of choices between combinations of acoustic and visual cues of varying quality in nocturnal conditions. While females exhibited the expected preference for a combination of attractive values for visual and acoustic signals over combinations of unattractive values for both signals, when presented with conflicting acoustic and visual cues, they equally adopted one of two strategies, preferring either attractive calls or intense vocal sac coloration. This constitutes novel evidence that the outcome of mate choice, as predicted on the basis of male calling quality, can be drastically different when additional communication modalities—in this case vision—are taken into account. These results also highlight the possible existence of individual variation in female rules for cue prioritization. The implications of these results for the study of mate choice in nocturnal acoustic species are discussed. 相似文献

The pollination of the genus Arum (Araceae) is mainly achieved by deception, the floral odour mimicking the pollinator ovipositing site. In order to discover the sensory organs involved in this attraction, we have studied the antennae of five species of psychodine moth-flies (former Psychoda sensu lato=Psychodini), pollinators of Arum spp. The antennae of the five Psychodini reveal seven types of sensilla: multiporous tribranched sensilla basiconica (sensilla ascoidea), multiporous sensilla basiconica, multiporous sensilla coeloconica, multiporous sensilla auricillica, uniporous sensilla basiconica, aporous sensilla chaetica, aporous Böhm’s sensilla. Each species possesses three, five or six of these sensillum types. All the multiporous sensilla are probably olfactory receptors while the uniporous sensilla basiconica must possess a contact chemoreceptive function. The multiporous tribranched sensilla basiconica (s. ascoidea), present in all the species, are the best candidates for the reception of the odours given off by the ovipositing sites and the inflorescences of Arum. The multiporous sensilla basiconica and the multiporous sensilla coeloconica may be involved respectively as CO2 receptors or thermoreceptors. Psychoda phalaenoides, which is the main pollinator of A. maculatum, is the species which possesses the largest number of antennal sensilla. The sexual dimorphism, studied only in Psycha grisescens, as concerns the number of sensilla and the absence of a sensillum type which differ according to sex, is difficult to interpret. 相似文献

The ultrastructure of antennal sensilla was investigated in males and females of 5 European Yponomeuta species. Three types of olfactory sensilla could be distinguished, i.e. sensilla trichodea, sensilla basiconica, and sensilla coeloconica. Sexual dimorphism in the number of cells innervating sensilla trichodea could be established in 3 species. Most of these sensilla in males of Y. vigintipunctatus, Y. rorellus, and Y. cagnagellus are associated with 3 sensory cells, whereas in females of these species these sensilla contain 2 sensory cells. In both males and females of Y. padeltus and Y. malinellus, the great majority of the sensilla trichodea is innervated by 3 cells. So-called sensilla chaetica type 1 show features typical of a combined mechano/contact-chemoreceptor. No structures indicating a sensory function were found in sensilla chaetica type 11. Sensilla styloconica contain 3 cells, the dendritic outer segment of one being lamellated; most likely, these cells have a thermo- and hygroreceptive function. The findings concerning the olfactory sensilla are discussed in the context of olfactory communication and reproductive isolation in European Yponomeuta. 相似文献

Ultrastructure of the antennal sensilla of Alabama argillacea (Hübner, 1823) (Lepidoptera: Erebidae)
《Revista Brasileira de Entomologia》2019,63(2):141-148
Insects have several types of sensilla, the characterization of which has been fundamental to understanding the mechanisms of sensory perception in different species. This study aimed to describe the ultrastructure of the sensilla present on the antennae of Alabama argillacea (Hübner, 1823) (Lepidoptera: Erebidae), an important pest of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) crops, as well as their possible variation between sexes. To do this, the antennae of males and females of A. argillacea were analyzed using scanning electron microscopy. Sensilla morphometry was assessed using photomicrographs, from which the lengths and basal and apical diameters of sensilla were measured using the ImageJ program. Seven types of sensilla were identified on the antennae of A. argillacea: sensilla trichodea, sensilla chaetica, sensilla auricillica, sensilla coeloconica, sensilla styloconica, sensilla basiconica, and sensilla Böhm bristles. Differences between the sensilla of males and females were found in their lengths and basal diameters in the distal and proximal regions. This suggests that sensilla functionality may not only vary from one species to another, but also between sexes within the same species. Thus, further transmission electron microscopy and single sensillum recording studies may provide more detailed information on the sensilla of A. argillacea and their functions. 相似文献

The antennae of Magicicada cassini (Homoptera : Cicadidae) (3–4 mm long) look similar in both sexes and consist of scape, pedicel, and a 5-segmented flagellum. The length of flagellar segment 1 varies independently in relation to head size and is slightly longer in females (0.96 mm) than in males (0.89 mm). The ventral side of flagellar segment 1 is covered with sensilla coeloconica comprising about 60 large, 10 medium-sized, and 35 small sensilla with pit diameters of 8–24, 6–10, and 2 μm, respectively. The large and the medium-sized sensilla coeloconica are multiporous single-walled sensilla with pore tubules, containing branched entangled dendrites from 3 receptor cells. The small sensilla coeloconica, situated primarily at the outer border of the sensillum field, are no-pore sensilla with inflexible sockets. They contain 2 unbranched dendrites extending to the tip of the peg, and 1 dendrite reaching to its base and wrapping around the other 2 dendrites. Small sensilla campaniformia (cap diameter 3 μm) are aligned at the outer border of the sensillum field and continue all along the flagellum. Up to 3 olfactory receptor cells were distinguished on the basis of their nerve impulse amplitudes through extracellular electrophysiological recordings from sensilla coeloconica, presumably large ones. They respond to stimulation by cyclic terpenoids with different but highly overlapping reaction spectra, and react selectively to structural variations of the molecules. No responses to CO2, temperature or moisture were recorded. 相似文献

Most species of Staphylinidae are predators in an agroecosystem. They acquire prey information from their environment through receptors. In this study, the sensilla on maxillary and labial palps of Philonthus kailiensis, Philonthus lewisius and Quedius robustus were examined with scanning electron microscopy to identify and analyse the external morphology and distribution of the sensilla to enhance our knowledge of the sensilla of Staphylinidae and provide a rationale of taxonomical studies on the two genus. Results showed that the sensilla are classified into six types: Böhm bristles, sensilla chaetica, sensilla furcate, sensilla coeloconica, sensilla placodea and sensilla basiconica. No sexual dimorphism exists among the three species. The relationships and functions of sensilla on maxillary and labial palps were also speculated. There may be a certain correlation between the sensilla on maxillary and labial palps of the staphylinid and its habitat. 相似文献

The distribution and fine morphology of antennal sensilla of nymphal and adult mayfly, Baetis rhodani (Ephemeroptera : Baetidae), were examined. In the nymph, various kinds of sensilla (chaetica, basiconica, coeloconica and cuticular pits) are differently arranged on the antennal segments, whereas sensilla campaniformia delimit the distal border of the pedicel. A peculiar kind of sensillum basiconicum, named flat-tipped sensillum, is present along the entire antenna, even though in the flagellum it has a regular arrangement between the cuticular lobes that delimit the distal border of each article. In the subimago the scape and pedicel are profusely covered with microtrichia and scattered sensilla trichodea, whereas the flagellum shows cuticular ribs. Sensilla coeloconica are present along the ventral side of the flagellum. In the imago, the antenna is completely decorated with scales among which sensilla trichodea and sensilla coeloconica occasionally occur. As in the nymph, adult mayflies have a ring of sensilla campaniformia along the distal border of the pedicel. When compared with nymphal antennae, those of adults have fewer types of sensilla, presumably in relation to the short, non-feeding terrestrial life. 相似文献
