Cerci (singular cercus) are paired appendages on the rear-most segments of many Arthropoda, including insects and Symphyla. Many forms of cerci serve as sensory organs, but some serve as pinching weapons or as organs of copulation. In many insects, they simply may be functionless vestigial structures.In basal arthropods, such as silverfish, the cerci originate from the eleventh abdominal segment.
