larval optic focus [FBbt_00007131]

A synaptic neuropil domain of the larval brain formed during larval stages by axons originating from the lobula primordium in the optic lobe and dorso-lateral protocerebrum. These axons form terminal branches lateral to the borders of the centro-posterior lateral and baso-lateral compartments which then become enclosed by a glial sheath, forming this compartment.
