Fig. 4

a Ring sinus-level Merkel- and lanceolate-endings (blue and orange respectively) across different vibrissae. b Club-like endings terminating adjacent to the ringwulst are shown in green. Not the relatively higher abundance of club-like endings and even tiling in the C2 follicle. c Below, ringwulst Ruffini-endings are shown in red. d Bar plot showing relative composition of afferent types across different vibrissa follicles.
