Single afferent, averaged response “ensemble afferent responses” from 1 stimulation point triggering average on 1 sensillum on DORSAL SURFACE (sensitive to transverse wind current)
Spatial independence of conduction speed Slope = 1.87 ± 0.09 m/s 23 units
Interneuron responses to stimulus sequences 50 stimuli
3 interneuron response profiles Sequence-independent IN Tip-before base preference Tip and base close in time preference (but bulk flow excluded)
