ellipsoid body tile

ID: FBbt_00049176

A radial subdivision of the ellipsoid body (EB) posterior shell (outer and inner posterior domains). There are 8 of these per EB, with the dorsal and ventral tiles spanning both hemispheres (Wolff et al., 2018). Each tile is connected to two protocerebral bridge (PB) glomeruli by each EB tile cell type with glomerular arbors in the PB (Wolff et al., 2015).
