fat body primordium [FBbt_00005067]

The fat body primordium after the gonadal sheath primordium splits from it during stage 14. By stage 15, the different primordia fuse to form a continuous layer (Hoshizaki et al., 1994). The precursor fat cells it contains continue differentiating until stage 17, when the primordium becomes the fat body proper (Campos-Ortega and Hartenstein, 1997).
