|---|---|---|
| DAC1 | 4–5 | Dorsal protocerebrum, anterior marginal sites |
| DMC | 4 | Dorsal medial protocerebrum, region of the median neurosecretory cells |
| DPC | ~15 | Dorsal protocerebrum, sites extending in different levels in posterior cellular rind |
| LP1 | 1 | Lateral protocerebrum, dorsal level of central complex, close to anterior optic tract |
| AL1 | 4–5 | Ventral brain at the esophagus level very close to midline |
| SM | 12–14 | Midline cells with sites extending anterior to posterior subesophageal ganglion both in larval and adult CNS |
| PTS | 1 | Single cell in midline of prothoracic neuromere |
| PTC | 3 | Cell cluster in midline of prothoracic neuromere |
| MSG | 5–6 | Midline cell cluster in mesothoracic neuromere |
| MTC | 3 | Midline cell cluster in metathoracic neuromere |
| AC | 5–6 | Cell cluster in the adult fused abdominal ganglia |
| PM | 10 | Five pairs of neurons flanking the midline of larval subesophageal and thoracic ganglia |
| AM | 1–2/segment | Ventral medial neurons in the abdominal ganglion of larval CNS |
