medulla sublayer M6A [FBbt_00111269]
Distal sublayer of the medulla layer M6, proximal to layer M5. It is defined by the extent of the arborization of Dm8 neurons proximally. In the literature there are two methods for describing spatial location of neurons in the visual system: distal-proximal (e.g. Fischbach and Dittrich, 1989), and lateral-medial (e.g. Ito et al., 2014), both meaning outer and inner, respectively, and refer to the distance of a structure along the visual pathway relative to the center of the brain. Currently we will adopt the classical ‘distal-proximal’.
