Pedipalp
Definition:
(n.) One of the Pedipalpi.
Example Sentences:
(1) The peripheral nervous system of an ixodid and an argasid tick include the following components: (1) paired optic, cheliceral and pedipalpal nerves and unpaired stomodeal nerve arising from the pre-esophageal portion of the central nervous system (synganglion); (2) 4 pairs of pedal nerve trunks (each with appendicular and hemal branches) and 4 major pairs of opisthosomal nerves (including the paraspiracular, genital, postlateral-myosomal, and ano-myosomal nerves); and (3) the lateral "sympathetic" plexuses formed by contributions of hemal nerves arising from pedal ganglia and from the paraspiracular nerves.
