dorsal median tract of dorsal cervical fasciculus [FBbt_00047535]
Most medial continuation of fibers from the dorsal cervical fascicle into the adult ventral nerve cord (Power, 1948). It bows laterally in the mesothoracic region, but returns medially as it passes through the narrow region between the mesothoracic and metathoracic neuromeres (Power, 1948). At the level of the haltere nerve, it turns to run lateroposteriorly, giving off collaterals in the metathoracic neuromere and entering the metathoracic leg nerve (Power, 1948). It passes below the commissure of fine fibers, but above the metathoracic anterior intermediate (haltere) commissure (Power, 1948). It contains the projections of a large number of descending neurons that innervate both the dorsal and ventral tectulum and the leg neuropils (Namiki et al., 2018).
