Abstract
Chemoreception is reviewed from the point of view of the arthropod's environmental stimuli, namely decaying organic materials, stored products, plant roots, undamaged plant surfaces, flowers, plant interior (plant saps), animal hosts and pheromones. Arthropods living in the same environment seem to have receptor cells with similar action spectra. Chemically pure stimuli, highly specific receptors and unique behavioural responses are the exception rather than the rule. It is concluded that the sensory system provides the central nervous system with a multitude of sensory information coded in across fiber patterns.
