Anatomy and morphology of olfactory neurons arborizing in second and third-order brain centers in M. sexta. These neurons might respond to other sensory modalities. (A) A protocerebral neuron with dendritic arborizations in the inferior lateral protocerbrum (ILP) and the calyx of the mushroom bodies (CMB). (B) In the same preparation a male-specific (MGC) neuron was differentially stained (in magenta) showing that both neurons have arborizations in overlapping areas (yellow). Scale bar: 100 μm. D, dorsal; L, lateral. (C) An olfactory-responsive neuron with arborizations in the CMB. (D) A neuron in the lateral accessory lobe (LAL), an area which receives input from olfactory protocerebral neurons. Scale: 200 μm. Same orientation in all panels; D, dorsal; L, lateral.
