Neurons of self-defence: neuronal innervation of the exocrine defence glands in stick insects
BACKGROUND: Stick insects (Phasmatodea) use repellent chemical substances (allomones) for defence which are released from so-called defence glands in the prothorax. These glands differ in size between species, and are under neuronal control from the CNS. The detailed neural innervation and possible...
