In mosquito's the ciliary apparatus is found in the mechanosensory transduction system (used for hearing) within the scolopidia. The aparatus is constructed by a number of tubules within a cell membrane and is attached to a cap, and as flagellum movements (from sound) happen, it causes stretching of these cells which can instigagte an action potential in the neurones
