Investigated by light microscopic observations, nerve pathways and the Stützzellle are described in the praesoma of a species of Corynosoma . The pathways are described for 13 nerves, 6 paired and one single nerve, which originate from the cerebral ganglion and terminate in the body wall musculature and the proboscis. © 1994 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
