Immunostaining of the visceral ganglion by FMRFamide (green), serotonin (magenta), and acetylated α-tubulin (white) antibodies with DAPI (blue) of the adult scallop Azumapecten farreri. a Tissue section of the visceral ganglion (VG) with accessory ganglion (Ag). The VG has a dorsal central lobe (dc lobe) ventral central lobe (vc lobe) and two lateral lobes (lat. lobe). Pallial nerves (pn) extending from the lateral lobes. On the upper side from the dorsal central lobe extend cerebropleuro-visceral connective (cpvc). The external part of the ganglia comprising of neuronal cells surrounds the central part of ganglia including the intertwined neurites (neuropil). Inserts: b–e1 Magnified parts of the VG. Scale bars: a = 150 μm; b, c, d, e = 50 μm; b1, c1, d1, e1 = 13 μm
