ventromedial domain of larval central nervous system

ID: FBbt_00007706

A ventro-medially located longitudinal subdivision of the larval central nervous system spanning the tritocerebral, gnathal, thoracic and abdominal neuromeres (Hartenstein et al., 2018). It is found at the same level as the ventrolateral domain; ventral to the central domain (which contains the C1-3 fascicles) and the centromedial domain (which contains the VM fascicle) (Hartenstein et al., 2018). It contains the ipsilateral parts of the ventral commissures (Hartenstein et al., 2018). Its lateral boundary (with the ventrolateral domain) is defined by the entry points of lineages 3,5,6 and 12 into the neuropil, which are at the same medio-lateral position as the C1-3 fascicles (Hartenstein et al., 2018).
