ID: FBbt_00004063
Adult Nervous system Neuron projection bundle
A nerve that arises from a ventral protuberance on the adult mesothoracic neuromere (Power, 1948; Court et al., 2020. It splits at its base, with a small number of fibers innervating a ventral muscle that is posterior-lateral to the tergal depressor of the trochanter and the rest projecting into the mesothoracic leg (Power, 1948; Court et al., 2020. (Power, 1948, Court et al., 2020)
This might sensibly be treated as two nerves sharing a root (see Power, 1948.
