Figure
1)  Pattern and morphology of Drosophila embryonic glia.  Ventral view of a late stage Drosophila embryo where glial nuclei are stained in red, and glial membranes are stained green.  Embryonic glia ensheath the entire nervous system.  Their functions include governing axon pathfinding and fasciculation, providing trophic support to promote neuronal survival, and acting as CNS immune cells.
