Abstract
Experiments involving the recording of impulses in sensory nerves in the appendages of a scorpion and an amblypygid show that the slit sensilla (lyriform organs) of these arachnids are mechanoreceptors, sensitive to strains in the cuticle and analogous to the campaniform sensilla of insects.
