Transmission electron microscopic images of serial ultrathin transversal sections (see section "Description of method: ultrathin sectioning and transmission electron microscopy" for details) through a triplet of sensilla (1–3), each comprising two sensory cells and their dendrites (D1, D2), on the molar process of the mandible of larval Palaemon elegans revealing cellular ultrastructures indicative of the architecture and function of the sensilla (modified from [77]), a: distal dendrites near sockets of setae. b–d Transversal sections at different levels from distal (b) to proximal (d). c Dendrite with 9 × 2 & 0 pattern of microtubules and A-tubulus with arms. Abbreviations: DS: dendrite sheath, EC 1, EC2: enveloping cells 1, 2, RLC: receptor lymph cavity, Sc: scolopale
