A Spider’s Tactile Hairslar hairs are the most obvious ones. They also provide the input stage for a spider’s sense of touch. As will be shown spider tactile hairs are surprisingly well “designed” to serve their particular sensory purposes.

Tactile Sensing in the Octopusan derive from this sense. . . has proved to be a useful tool for the investigation of how much a soft-bodied invertebrate animal can derive from contacts with its environment because it learns rapidly in the laboratory. The limits of its ability to discriminate can be deduced from the results of training experiments.

Haptic Explorationare linked to specific object properties, in two respects: The EP associated with an object property is (a) executed spontaneously when information about that property is desired, and (b) appears to optimize information uptake about that property. We review EPs from a behavioral, neurophysiological, and developmental perspective.

Haptic Perception of Forceher aspects of force perception might include physiological aspects or neuronal processing, but these are beyond the scope of the present article. Furthermore, force sensation plays a role in the perception of other physical aspects, such as friction or stiffness. These aspects are reviewed separately.

Stick Insect AntennaeInsects have an elaborate sense of touch. Their most important source for tactile information is the pair of feelers on the head: the antennae (Figure .; singular: antenna). The stick insect . is one of four major study organisms for the ..

Vibrissal Touch in the Etruscan ShrewThe . . (also known as white-toothed pygmy shrew) is the smallest terrestrial mammal with a body weight of 2 g and a body length of around 4 cm without tail (Figure .a). Shrews feed on insects and they use the sense of touch to detect and hunt prey.
