}Publisher Summary Chordotonal organs are generally found in Insecta and Crustacea. In insects, chordotonal organs occur in great morphological diversity, and are found at nearly every exoskeletal joint and between joints within limb and body segments. Morphologically, a chordotonal organ is a cluster of sensilla connected to movable parts of skeletal cuticle or to the tracheal system, or sometimes inserting into a connective tissue strand. It is noted within some chordotonal organs, neurons are… CONTINUE READING
