Adult Nervous system Neuron

Descending neuron belonging to the DNg group, having a cell body in the cell body rind around the gnathal ganglion. This neuron crosses the midline and descends on the contralateral side of the cervical connective. It has neurites in the saddle, gnathal ganglion, wing neuropil and T1 leg neuropil. It fasciculates with the dorsal lateral tract of the dorsal cervical fascicle in the ventral nerve cord. There is one of these cells per hemisphere. (Namiki et al., 2018)
