distal medulla glial cell [FBbt_00100528]

Glial cell located proximal to the marginal glial cells. They elaborate long processes and wrap R cell axons in the medulla, which stop precisely at the base of expanded R8 and R7 growth cones. They also extend processes to the bottom of the lamina furrow (Poeck et al., 2001). Original reference (Poeck et al., 2001) does not distinguish ensheathing and reticular glia, so this cell type covers both [FBC:CP].
