Recent behavioral studies have shown that harvestmen of the suborder Laniatores can detect odors, but no olfactory receptor has yet been identified in the group. Histology is an efficient method to infer sensilla function in arthropods. Applying this technique in this harvestmen group would be particularly interesting because it would: 1) enable the identification of olfactory receptors i…
When compared with other arachnids, the sensilla' fine morphology of the four suborders of Opiliones is poorly know. Specially in Laniatores, the largest suborder, no olfactory receptor has been identified, and only one study, in the suborder Eupnoi, has provided detailed information on gustatory receptor's internal morphology. This is a considerable gap in sensory biology of Opiliones, c…
