General Information
Term prothoracic long tendon ID (Ontology) FBbt:00003351 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition Long tendon cell located in the prothoracic leg (Chapman, 1998; Soler et al., 2004).[ FlyBase:FBrf0180184 FlyBase:FBrf0239229 ]
Comment This tendon was initially described by Miller (1950) as the prothoracic pretarsal depressor muscle 44, originating in the metatarsus and extending to the pretarsus. It was later found that there are no muscles in the tarsal segments and that what Miller described was actually a tendon originating more proximally in the leg (Chapman, 1998; Soler et al., 2004).
