pubmed:abstractText |
Crotaline snakes possess a pair of infrared-sensing pit organs that aid the eyes in the detection and apprehension of prey. The morphology of the receptors in the pit organs has been studied by light and transmission electron microscopy, and the ultrastructure of the receptors has been inferred from the results of this work. But this theoretical reconstruction has never been confirmed by any kind of three-dimensional imaging.
