Electrophysiologically identified cells of the cockroach pars intercerebralis (Periplaneta americana) were injected with the dye Lucifer Yellow for morphological examination and with horseradish peroxidase for ultrastructural marking. In addition to this, uninjected cells were also studied to elaborate the findings from the injected material. The two electrophysiologically distinct classes of cells (type I and type II) correspond to two distinct morphological and ultrastructural classes. Type I cells are the medial neurosecretory cells of the pars intercerebralis, which project their axons to the retrocerebral neuro-hemal complex. Their cell bodies have a mean diameter of 17 microns, and they contain neurosecretory granules 200 nm in diameter. Arborizations emanate from the axon in the anterior part of the protocerebral neuropil. The type II cell bodies are larger (38 microns in diameter). Their axons project into the contralateral circumesophageal connective. These cells were usually multipolar, having somatic arborizations in the anterior portocerebral neuropil. The cell bodies contain vesicles 40 nm in diameter, numerous trophospongia, and a multi-layered glial envelope.
