transmedullary neuron Tm8 [FBbt_00003796]
Transmedullary wide-field neuron that terminates in lobula layers 5 and 6 with bleb-type arborizations. It displays fine arborizations in medulla layers M4, M6, M8 and M9, and has bleb-type arborizations in layers M4 and M8 (Morante and Desplan, 2008; Fischbach and Dittrich, 1989). It is a cholinergic neuron (Varija Raghu et al., 2011). The neurotransmitter was assessed by co-labelling cells with a Cha-GAL4.7.4 driver [FBtp0014830] and an anti-ChAT antibody (Varija Raghu et al., 2011). Pre- versus postsynaptic innervation judged by scoring of terminal morphology from figures in Fischbach and Dittrich (1989) as assessed by FlyBrain Neuron DB.
