Abstract
The distribution, relative abundance, and external ultrastructure of the antennal flagellar spines, hairs, and pegs of female Simulium arcticum (IIL-3) and (IIS-10.11) are described. Five types of sensilla were found; two are probably contact chemosensilla, with one type at the flagellar tip and the other type on the general flagellar surface, and the three others are probably olfactory sensillae, also on the flagellar surface. Results from this study are compared with those of previous studies of black fly antennal sensilla.
