(5) cranial nerves (...) (reference 1); Phylogenetically, the cranial nerves are thought to have evolved from dorsal and ventral nerves of a few anterior spinal nerves that became incorporated into the braincase. Dorsal and ventral nerves fuse in the trunk but not in the head, and they produce two series: dorsal cranial nerves (V, VII, IX, and X) and ventral cranial nerves (III, IV, VI, and XIII) (reference 2).[well established][VHOG] XAO:0003096 ZFA:0000668 cranial nerve IX glossopharyngeal IX glossopharyngeal IX nerve glossopharyngeal nerve [IX] glossopharyngeal nerve tree http://braininfo.rprc.washington.edu/centraldirectory.aspx?ID=701 nerve IX nervus glossopharyngeus nervus glossopharyngeus nervus glossopharyngeus [ix] ninth cranial nerve uberon taste bud cranial nerve medulla oblongata basal plate metencephalon pharynx
