Cm31b [FBbt_20011380]

Adult central medulla intrinsic neuron of the Cm31b group (Nern et al., 2025). It receives input in the ipsilateral medulla layer M5, medulla layer M6, medulla serpentine layer and medulla layer M8 (Nern et al., 2025). It sends output to the ipsilateral medulla layer M5, medulla layer M6, medulla serpentine layer and medulla layer M8 (Nern et al., 2025). Its predicted neurotransmitter is GABA (Eckstein et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). There is one of these cells per hemisphere (Nern et al., 2025).
