We have used immunocytochemical methods to examine the sequence of appearance of octopamine-immunoreactive neurons during development, and to try to correlate that appearance with the emergence of behavioral or physiological capabilities. The first octopamine neurons express their transmitter phenotype at approximately 43% of embryonic development. The last cells show immunostaining at the 3rd larval stage. In...
