Abstract

The ultrastructural features of a new chordotonal sensillum in a cavernicolous Mysidacea is described. That sensillum and the other mechanoreceptor sensilla of the same Mysidacea are compared. 9 + 0 cilia show ultrastructural features which previously allowed us to establish a hypothesis with respect to the mode of functioning of chordotonal sensilla. That sensillum shows a pore at the tip of its external receptor.
