Adult Nervous system Sense organ

Sense organ that extends along the adult hypopharynx. It comprises a heterogeneous group of nine sensilla, numbered from proximal to distal, containing a total of 8 mechanosensory and 10 gustatory receptor neurons. Three of these sensilla are gustatory, one with 3 neurons and the others with one each. The remaining 6 sensilla are mechanosensory (Nayak and Singh, 1985). It develops from the dorsal pharyngeal sense organ. (Vosshall and Stocker, 2007, Stocker and Schorderet, 1981, Gendre et al., 2004, Nayak and Singh, 1983)
