    Author: Kelling ST, Halpern BP, Eisner T.
    Journal: Experientia; 1990 Jul 15; 46(7):763-4. PubMed ID: 2373205.
    Abstract:
    Glossopharyngeal nerve stimulation of the bullfrog, Rana catesbeiana, revealed responsiveness to low levels of cantharidin (1.3 x 10(-6) M), providing a first demonstration of neural gustatory sensitivity of an animal to this defensive chemical from blister beetles (Meloidae).
