mesectoderm [FBbt_00000136]

A double row of cells located at the midline from the end of gastrulation. The morphology of these cells is distinct from adjacent ectodermal cells - they are elongated such that one end remains exposed to the outside of the embryo at the midline while the other end bisects the internalized mesoderm.
