(A-B) The esophagus of the cyprid opens on the ventral surface through the oral cone (consisting of vestigial mouthpart appendages). In these sections the esophagus appears to be closed in the region where it passes between the cephalon and thorax. Nerve roots arising from the anterior ganglionic divisions can be traced along the length of the esophagus and extend toward the gut (arrows). Innervation of mouthpar

Nerve roots arising from the anterior ganglionic divisions can be traced along the length of the esophagus and extend toward the gut (arrows). Innervation of mouthpart appendages was not observed. (C) The neurites of ventrally located cells project to the neuropil of anterior ganglionic divisions, but few nerves could be traced out of this region. and two anonymous reviewers, whose comprehensive feed- back was used to significantly improve the manuscript.
