chemosensory sensillum of the female genitalia [FBbt_00100131]
Short, blunt-tipped thorn bristle or spine bristle located on the adult vaginal plate. There are around 10 bilateral pairs of thorn bristles and around 3 bilateral pairs of spine bristles. Note: currently there is no direct evidence that these neurons are definitely chemosensory. That they are likely to be chemosensory in nature is based on their morphology (Taylor, 1989), that they are multiply innervated (Taylor, 1989), and behavioral observations of the animals during egg laying (Yang et al., 2008).
