The nerve-cord has three large ganglia in the thorax, one each for pro-, meso-and metathoracic segments, therefore, they are called prothoracic, mesothoracic and metathoracic ganglia.
The nerve cord has six ganglia in the abdomen which lie in the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 7th segments. In Cockroach nerve cord ganglia are three pairs of thoracic and six pairs of abdominal.
