Adult descending neuron with its soma in the gnathal ganglion, posterior to the antennal mechanosensory and motor center (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024. In the brain, it has postsynapses in the saddle, the ipsilateral inferior posterior slope and the gnathal ganglion (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024. Its presynapses are mainly found in the contralateral inferior and superior posterior slope (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024. In the VNC, it follows the intermediate tract of dorsal cervical fasciculus - commissure of fine fibers (Sturner et al., 2025). Its predicted neurotransmitter is acetylcholine (Eckstein et al., 2024. There are approximately 4 of these cells per organism (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Sturner et al., 2025). (Dorkenwald et al., 2024, Eckstein et al., 2024, Stürner et al., 2025)
Type identified at light level and matched across EM datasets by Sturner et al. (2025). Pre- or post-synapse locations are the fewest regions that collectively contain at least 80 percent of all pre- or post-synapses of these neurons in FlyWire.
