project into the ventral nerve cord where they arborize dorsally and around the leg neuromere. Moreover, the neurons of the hair plates located at the thorax-coxa joint project through the ventral, dorsal, and accessory prothoracic nerves, whereas, other hair plate neurons on the leg project through the prothoracic leg nerve. Lastly, the neurons from each hair plate may have distinct axonal morphologies.
