mechanosensory neuron of terminal organ dorsolateral group [FBbt_00048359]

Mechanosensory neuron with a dendrite in the terminal organ on the surface of the larval head, but whose soma is located in the dorsal organ ganglion (Rist and Thum, 2017). There are 2 of these neurons, one innervating the dorsolateral papilla and one innervating the spot sensillum, and they project via the antennal nerve (Rist and Thum, 2017).

Larva Mechanosensory system Nervous system Sensory neuron

Mechanosensory neuron with a dendrite in the terminal organ on the surface of the larval head, but whose soma is located in the dorsal organ ganglion (Rist and Thum, 2017). There are 2 of these neurons, one innervating the dorsolateral papilla and one innervating the spot sensillum, and they project via the antennal nerve (Rist and Thum, 2017).

Thought to be mechanosensory based on the presence of a tubular body (Rist and Thum, 2017).
