Summary The neuropile regions in the supraesophageal ganglion ofLocusta migratoria were revealed by Bodian staining of frontal and parasagittal sections. A combined recording and staining technique (CoS method, Rehbein et al., 1974) was used to identify physiologically five different types of auditory ventral cord neurons and mark the course of their axons and the positions of the terminal arborizations. The boundaries of the projection regions are described; they include the various multimodal neuropile regions in the ventrolateral protocerebrum. Previously demonstrated instances of convergence with neurons of other sensory systems, and others likely to exist, are considered with respect to their possible significance in neuronal processing within the auditory system.
