pseudotracheal taste peg [FBbt_00004165]
Taste peg located in rows between and on the lateral sides of the 6 pseudotracheal rows of the adult labellum. Each peg sensillum contains one putative chemosensory and one mechanosensory neuron. The lateral rows contain 1-5 taste pegs per row, whereas the remaining rows contain 7-9 pegs. There is significant sexual dimorphism in the number of pseudotracheal taste pegs, with females having 20% more taste pegs than males (Shanbag et al., 2001).
