SUMMARY Mechanoreceptors are important in the positioning of animals. Some- times the "rest" position is one of contact stimulus on one side, as in the orientation of blind fish on a stream bottom or as in the inhibition of insect flight by tarsal contact. Sometimes there is a balance of bilateral.
