LoVC27 [FBbt_20007277]

Adult lobula visual centrifugal neuron of the LoVC27 group (Nern et al., 2025). It belongs to the DM6 posterior hemilineage (Nern et al., 2025). It receives input in the ipsilateral superior posterior slope, and the contralateral lobula layer 6 and lobula layer 5B (Nern et al., 2025). It sends output to the contralateral lobula layer 6 and lobula layer 5B (Nern et al., 2025). Its predicted neurotransmitter is glutamate (Eckstein et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). There are approximately 5 of these cells per hemisphere (Nern et al., 2025).

Adult Glutamatergic Visual system lineage DM6 CM3

Cell type identified in multiple EM datasets (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.
