larval anterior ventral sensory compartment

ID: FBbt_00051408

Sensory compartment of the larval central nervous system that is found mainly within a superficial (ventral) region of the ventromedial neuropil domain of the tritocerebrum and mandibular neuromere (Kendroud et al., 2018). It contains sensory afferents of neurons from the pharyngeal and maxillary-labial nerves (Kendroud et al., 2018; Miroschnikow et al., 2018).

AV of Miroschnikow et al. (2018) and AVSC of Kendroud et al. (2018) refer to approximately the same anatomy, but boundaries may not precisely correspond - see author response of Miroschnikow et al. (2018).
