Insect extraordinary evolutionary success is due to different reasons among which their
ability to receive and respond to a great variety of sensory cues thanks to their developed …

The antennae are a critically important component of the ant's highly elaborated chemical
communication systems. However, our understanding of the organization of the sensory …

Ants have well‐developed chemosensory systems for social lives. The goal of our study is to
understand the functional organization of the ant chemosensory system based on caste‐and …

In the deserts of northern and southern Africa, respectively, ants of the genera
Cataglyphisfoerster (Formicinae) and Ocymyrmexemery (Myrmicinae) occupy the same …

Most insects are equipped with specialized thermo‐and hygroreceptors to locate a
permissible range of ambient temperature and distant water sources, respectively. In the …

The impact of global warming on wild bee decline threatens the pollination services they
provide. Exposure to temperatures above optimal during development is known to reduce …

In insects, the antenna consists of a scapus, a pedicellus, and a flagellum comprising many
segments (flagellomeres). These segments possess many morphological types of sensory …

Olfaction and chemical ecology in phytophagous ladybird beetles have been largely ignored
so far. The present paper describes for the first time basiconic, grooved, and trichoid porous …

The antennae of most insects move actively and detect the physical and chemical
composition of objects encountered by using their associated tactile sensors. Positional …

While chemical communication has been investigated intensively in vertebrates and insects,
relatively little is known about the sensory world of spiders despite the fact that chemical …
