Abstract:        The morphology of sensilla on the antennae of Tetrastichus brontispae Ferrière adult were observed under a scanning electron microscope. Eight distinct types of sensory receptors were found, including sensilla trichodea, sensilla multiporous plate, sensilla chaetica, sensilla basiconica, sensilla auricillica, sensilla mammilliformia, sensilla coeloconica and bhm bristles, of which sensillum trichodeum and sensillum placodeum were both the most numerous and widely distributed. Sexual dimorphism in antenna size and the shape, size, number and distribution of sensilla, was apparent.
