Brain morphology of Catajapyx aquilonaris and Campodea augens . A, B and C: Brain and sog of Catajapyx aquilonaris. A) Dorsal view (asterisks: motor nerves innervating intrinsic antennal muscles and muscles attached to the base of the antenna), B) Sagittal view. C) Anterior view including the nerves innervating the mouthparts. Inset: Frontal ganglion lying in the right half of the body. Asterisks: two branches of the nc. D and E: Campodea augens, cell somata blue, remaining tissue yellow. Somata covering the subesophageal ganglion not shown in the reconstruction. D) Lateral view. E) Dorsal view (inset: ventral view), connectives to the first thoracic ganglion indicated by black lines.
