SMELLING, HEARING, ETC.

Vogel (i66) and Kraepelin (8i) support this view, 
considering this an olfactory organ, and the hollows on 
the antennae as auditory ; but we think that the view

taken by Sir J. Lubbock (102) and others, that they 
are more likely to be organs of taste than of smell, 
is the more rational one. 
The nerves from the different hairs and hollows 
on the antennae collect in 
bundles (Fig. 38, a, g) and 
convey the impressions from 
outside to the nerve centres. 
Whether the antennae are 
to be considered as organs 
of smell or hearing is still um 
decided, although we think 
the weight of evidence so far 
is in favour of their being considered olfactory. 
Porter (135) thinks, from his experiments, that the 
antennae are not the organs of any of the so-called
