“…The ChS-UP have also been described as ''fluted basiconic sensilla'' in the braconid Cardiochiles nigriceps Vireck (Norton and Vinson, 1974) ''aporous, socketed hairs'' in the eulophid T. hagenowii , and as ''tapering fluted setae'' in the eulophid Melittobia australica Girault (Dahms, 1984). The ChS-UP have also been described in other wasps as having a terminal pore suggesting that they may be involved in contact chemoreception (Altner and Prillinger, 1980;Olson and Andow, 1993;Pettersson et al, 2001), including gustatory function (Isidoro et al, 1996;Barbarossa et al, 1998). The ChS-UP are confined to the apices of the antennae of P. cerealellae and many other pteromalids, further suggesting their role as contact chemoreceptors (Slifer, 1969;Wibel et al, 1984;Pettersson et al, 2001) and probable involvement in host recognition and host acceptance (Weseloh, 1972;Borden et al, 1973).…”
