By means of a paired commissure surrounding the gullet, they are connected with a double ventral chain of ten ganglia. Of these, the first or sub-oesophageal pair are large, and give off nerves to the mouth parts, &c.; from each of the ganglia of the thorax and the abdomen nerves are given off to adjacent parts. There are three pairs of ganglia in the thorax, and six.
