text: There are two types of fibers reaching the nucleus of the solitary tract via the glossopharyngeal nerve: the special visceral afferent fibers (with cell bodies located in the superior ganglion) transmit information of taste from the tongue, specifically, the vallate papillae, while the general visceral afferent fibers (with cell bodies also in the superior ganglion) transmit visceral sensations to the solitary tract nucleus from the middle ear, pharynx, tongue, and carotid sinus.
