It has previously been shown that, under suitable experimental conditions, Tenebrio molitor reacts clearly to humidity (Pielou & Gunn, 1940) and that the humidity receptors are probably the pit-peg organs and peg organs on the antennae (Pielou, 1940). The present work is an attempt to analyse the mechanism of this reaction both qualitatively and quantitatively, in terms of elementary animal behaviour.
