General Information
Term terminal organ ID (Ontology) FBbt:00002690 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition External compound sense organ of the antenno-maxillary complex of the larval head consisting of a distal group of 11 sensilla and a dorso-lateral group of 3 sensilla. This organ is innervated by gustatory receptor neurons that fasciculate with either the larval maxillary nerve (for the dorso-lateral group) or the larval antennal nerve (for the distal group) and terminate in area 2 of the subesophageal ganglion.[ FlyBase:FBrf0047373 FlyBase:FBrf0074007 FlyBase:FBrf0075072 FlyBase:FBrf0089570 FlyBase:FBrf0147119 FlyBase:FBrf0201176 ]
Also Known As "Maxillarorgan" ; "maxillary organ" ; "MxSO" (for all, see Synonyms field below)
