Adherens junctions (or zonula adherens, intermediate junction, or "belt desmosome") are protein complexes that occur at cell–cell junctions in epithelial and endothelial tissues, usually more basal than tight junctions.

Answer:
these usually occurs just below tight junctions . the intercellular space at these places contain a clear , low electron density fluid , there is a dense plaque like structure on cytoplasmic side of each plasma membrane from which fine microfilament of actin (protein) extend into the cytoplasm . there is no intracellular filaments between the adjacent cell membranes , there is an adhesive material at this point . thay are probably serve anchoring function.
