eo-type sensillum [FBbt_00007232]
Sensillum with an innervated external cuticular sensory structure consisting of one or more bipolar sensory neurons, and 3 support cells: a trichogen cell which makes the external cuticular sensory structure, a thecogen cell which makes the socket that holds the base of the external sensory structure and a tormogen cell which makes the cuticular matrix (cap) at the tip of the innervating dendrite(s).
