    Notes: Summary The coxo-trochanteral muscle receptor organ of the hind leg of the locust Locusta migratoria migratorioides (R.&F.) has been investigated by use of scanning and transmission electron microscopy with special emphasis on its distal attachment site. The overall morphology of the receptor muscle, the sensory neuron and its dendrites was found to share many common features with other arthropod sense organs of that type with two important differences: (1) the connective tissue segment (= intercalated tendon) is extremely short compared to that of other muscle receptor organs; (2) the naked dendritic terminals of the non-ciliated, multipolar sensory neuron of the organ contain clusters of microtubules, interconnected by an amorphous matrix, that resemble the tubular bodies of ciliated, epithelial receptor cells.

    Notes: Summary The distribution, morphology and synaptic connections of the hindgut efferent neurons in the last (sixth) abdominal ganglion of the crayfish, Orconectes limosus, have been investigated using light and electron microscopy in conjunction with retrograde cobalt/nickel and HRP labeling through the intestinal nerve. The hindgut efferent neurons occur singly and in clusters, and are unipolar. Their axonal projections are uniform and consist of a thick primary neurite with typical lateral projections and limited arborization of varicose fibers in the ganglionic neuropil. They also send lower order axon processes to the ganglionic neural sheath, where they arborize profusely, forming a network of varicose fibers. The majority of the efferent neurons project to the anterior part of the hindgut. HRP-labeled axon profiles are found in both pre- and postsynaptic position in the neuropil of the ganglion. HRP-labeled axon profiles also establish pre- and postsynaptic contacts in the intestinal nerve root. All hindgut efferent terminals contain similar synaptic vesicle populations: ovoid agranular vesicles (50–60 nm) and a few large granular vesicles (100–200 nm). It is suggested that the hindgut efferent neurons in the last abdominal ganglion are involved in: (1) innervation of the hindgut; (2) central integrative processes; (3) “en route” synaptic modification of efferent and afferent signals in the intestinal nerve; (4) neurohumoral modulation of peripheral physiological processes.
