Morphological aspects of early neurogenesis in Drosophila, in particular with the segregation of neuroblasts from the neurogenic region of the ectoderm and the pattern formed by those cells within both the germ band and the procephalic lobe are discussed. The neurogenic ectoderm contains neural precursors intermingled with epidermal precursors, extending from the midline up to the primordia of the tracheal tree along the germ band and laterodorsally in the procephalic lobe. Germ band neuroblasts segregate from the neurogenic ectoderm during a period of several hours according to characteristic spatial and temporal patterns. During the 1st 1/2 of the segregation process the pattern of germ band neuroblasts was found to be the same in different animals in spatial arrangement and number of cells; this permitted the identification of individual neuroblasts from different embryos. Later in development several difficulties were encountered which precluded an exact description of the neuroblast pattern. The constitution of the neurogenic region is discussed in relation to the phenotype of mutants affecting neurogenesis.
