Summary The peripheral nerves of the suboesophageal ganglion of the locust,Locusta migratoria have been investigated with respect to their innervation by dorsal unpaired median (DUM) neurons. The DUM neuron supply of the suboesophageal periphery was found to be strikingly sparse: No segmental DUM neurons could be found in all three mouthpart segments. While in the mandibular segment DUM neuron innervation appears to be missing entirely, both the maxillary and the labial peripheral nerves are supplied by a single, intersegmentally projecting prothoracic DUM neuron.
