Mushroom bodies
The mushroom bodies or corpora pedunculata are a pair of structures in the brain of arthropods, including insects and crustaceans,[2] and some annelids (notably the ragworm Platynereis dumerilii).[3] They are known to play a role in olfactory learning and memory. In most insects, the mushroom bodies and the lateral horn are the two higher brain regions that receive olfactory information from the antennal lobe via projection neurons.[4] They were first identified and described by French biologist Félix Dujardin in 1850.[5][6]
