pit sensillum T2 [FBbt_00002702]
One of the five pit sensilla located in the distal region of the terminal organ, on the head of the embryo/larva, distal to pit sensillum T3. It is innervated by four dendrites that do not contain mechanosensory tubular bodies, including gustatory receptor neurons C5, C7 and C12 (Rist and Thum, 2017).
