ventral row of wing sensilla [FBbt_00004333]

Single row of sensilla anteriorly located on the ventral aspect of the wing margin. It is composed of approximately 77-79 (for males/females) singly innervated, stout mechanosensory bristles interspersed with approximately 17-20 recurved, multiply innervated chemosensory bristles (Hartenstein and Posakony, 1989).

Adult Anatomy

Single row of sensilla anteriorly located on the ventral aspect of the wing margin. It is composed of approximately 77-79 (for males/females) singly innervated, stout mechanosensory bristles interspersed with approximately 17-20 recurved, multiply innervated chemosensory bristles (Hartenstein and Posakony, 1989).

The pattern of adult sensilla on the anterior wing margin is graphically depicted in figure 2A of Hartenstein and Posakony (1989).
