In the crayfish a bilateral pair of interneurons (the I3's) are involved in the generation of two types of tail-flip escape responses, one mediated by giant neurons and the other by nongiant circuitry. The I3's make a variety of output connections with the motoneurons and with other interneurons involved in tail flipping. The motoneuronal outputs include strong synapses on telson flexor motoneurons, whose activity during tail flips mediated by lateral giant fibers would be maladaptive. The lateral giants always drive the I3's, but also drive inhibitory neurons that prevent the undesirable outputs of the I3's while permitting their adaptive outputs to be expressed. It is often adaptive for tail flips initiated by nongiant circuitry to utilize the telson flexor muscles that I3 strongly excites. During such tail flips I3 is often fired, and this firing is important in driving the telson flexors.
