In the lobster Homarus gammarus (L.) (= Homarus vulgaris M. Ed.) three bilateral groups of proprioceptors are arranged around the mouth. These strand receptor organs, termed Mouthpart Receptors (MPRs) 1, 2 and 3, were described previously and their physiological responses, mainly to mandibular movements, were characterised (Laverack and Dando, 1968).
