Six types of sensilla were identified on the antennae of male and female Dacus tryoni with scanning electron microscopy: sensilla chaetica were restricted to the scape and pedicel; trichoid types I and II, basiconic, clavate and styloconic sensilla were restricted to segment 3. Their morphological characteristics and distributions are described.
