Fig. 1. Anatomy of the locust (pro- and meso-) thorax. Muscles relevant in the
present report are highlighted in reddish colours (adapted from fig. 8 in
Campbell, 1961). Muscle numbers
follow the Snodgrass terminology
(Snodgrass, 1929). The nervous
system is marked in blue. Note nerve supplies of muscles: M59 (sterno-pleural
intersegmental muscle) supplied by a branch of N1B, M60 (2nd ventral
longitudinal muscle) supplied by N1A1, M61 (sterno-spinal muscle)
supplied by N1A2, M81 (dorsal longitudinal muscle) and M82 (oblique
dorsal muscle) supplied by N1D1 (for details, also see
Fig. 6). The larval dorsal
longitudinal muscle DLM3 (hidden) is located just below the posterior ventral
corner of M81, indicated by grey shading. Scale bar, 1 mm.
