| Peripheral Nervous System |
|
| The peripheral nervous system consists of the nerves originating from the ganglia of the nerve ring and the ventral nerve cord. |
| |
| Nerves originating from the supra-oesophageal ganglion- optic (to the compound eyes), antennary (to the antenna) and the labro-frontal (to the labrum and the sympathetic nervous system). |
| |
| Nerves originating from the sub-oesophageal ganlion - mandibular (to the mandibles), maxillary (to the maxillae), labial (to the labium) and cervical (to the neck region). |
| |
| Nerves originating from the segmental ganglia - Each segmental ganglion has a pair of nerves arising from it. These nerves innervate all the thoracic and abdominal segments. |
