The great variety in structure and function of arthropod sensory
organs is due to the huge number of species living in spatially and
temporally different environments and to great variation in
behavioral patterns. This atlas compiles the electron microscopic
anatomy of arthropod sensory organophotoreceptors, chemoreceptors,
and others in relation to function, behavior, and environment. The
authors show how each sensory receptor is finely tuned to detect
the necessary information in the arthropods surroundings and how
the sensory receptors dynamically change their fine structures
according to their functional and adaptational states. In each
two-page spread of the book, electron or light micrographs are
shown on the right, with diagrammatic illustrations and
accompanying text on the left, in a format that is attractive and
easy to understand. The atlas thus provides an important bridge
between the physiology and morphology of arthropod sensory
receptors.
