Shali! we call this sense a new sense, or a heigh- tened appreciation of the old? Such senson as are exemplified by the cecropin moth, and others that are shown to exist in becu antsand wasps seem to be located in the antenne. But the antenne are organs of which homolog exists in the human
body: Hence we are the more completely justified in asserting that the antennal senses, how many soever they may bo, are produce no sensations in the hamso
