Li12

ID: FBbt_20011405

Adult lobula intrinsic neuron of the Li12 group (Nern et al., 2025). It belongs to the LHl4 posterior hemilineage (Nern et al., 2025). It receives input in the ipsilateral lobula layer 4, lobula layer 6, lobula layer 5A and lobula layer 5B (Nern et al., 2025). It sends output to the ipsilateral lobula layer 4, lobula layer 6, lobula layer 5A and lobula layer 5B (Nern et al., 2025). Its predicted neurotransmitter is glutamate (Eckstein et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). There are approximately 2 of these cells per hemisphere (Nern et al., 2025). The pair of them form a jigsaw pattern, tiling the neuropil (Matsliah et al., 2024).

Cell type identified in multiple EM datasets (Matsliah et al., 2025; Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). Synapse locations are given where each cell of this type in neuprint has at least 10 connections. Hemilineage information from neuprint, though original source not clear. Other information from Nern et al. (2025) supplements.
