Fig. 8. Ablating long hairs on the postcubitus (in trailing edge regions 14)
had a significant effect on the likelihood of eliciting a scratch when
stimulating any of the regions 19. (A) Following ablation the
probability of eliciting a scratch declined for the trailing edge regions
14, but increased for the wingtip region 5. (B) Following ablation the
probability of eliciting a scratch increased for leading edge regions
69. (C). Wing regions are indicated with coloured numerals, and the
claval furrow is indicated by a dashed line. The vannal region of the wing
above the claval furrow is normally folded across the dorsal surface of the
body, but is shown here flattened out. Dotted arrows indicate corresponding
wing regions in both histograms. Boxes indicate the interquartile range,
containing 50% of values, whiskers indicate the range, and horizontal lines
within boxes indicate the median. Where there was no variability, only the
median is shown as a horizontal line.
