adult ring gland [FBbt_00049278]

Cluster consisting of the corpus allatum (CA), corpus cardiacum (CC) and hypocerebral ganglion of the adult (Hartenstein, 1993). During pupal stages, the ring gland migrates posteriorly to its adult position, just anterior to the proventriculus (cardia), the prothoracic gland degenerates and the corpus cardiacum becomes fused to the hypocerebral ganglion (Dai and Gilbert, 1991; Nassel and Zandawala, 2020).
