SI, CI, specific and common inhibitory motor neurones; subscripts a and b designate different identified cells, and putative homonoms of CIaand CIb identified in the present study; SI neurons are specified by subscripts according to the muscle they innervate.

CLAC, `common contralateral A-type cell' of Steffens and Kutsch(1995).

LC, `loop cell' of Kutsch and Heckmann(1995).

IC, inhibitory cell of Yang and Burrows(1983).

*

Neuromere refers to soma location, as opposed to that of nerve exit.

1

Identified in present study.

2

(in bold), predicted from present study, i.e. observed in backfill preparations or anti-GABA immunocytochemistry, but no electrophysiology or co-localisation experiments were performed.

3

After Bräunig (1993),Bräunig et al. (2002),Schmäh (2002).
