mesothoracic sternotrochanter extensor muscle motor neuron [FBbt_00053572]

Adult motor neuron that has its soma in the mesothoracic neuromere and innervates the mesothoracic sternotrochanter extensor muscle (Azevedo et al., 2024; Cheong et al., 2025). There are three of these on each side and they fasciculate with the mesothoracic leg nerve (Cheong et al., 2025; Bates et al., 2025).
