ID: FBbt_20007594

Adult visual projection neuron with its soma posterior-medial to the lobula plate (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It is mainly postsynaptic in around 50 columns of lobula layers 5B and 6 (Nern et al., 2025). It remains ipsilateral and has its presynapses in the lobula, and superior and inferior clamp (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). Its predicted neurotransmitter is acetylcholine (Eckstein et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). There are approximately 2-3 of these cells per hemisphere (Nern et al., 2025).

Cell type from Schlegel et al. (2024), based on FlyWire v783 (FAFB) data (Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Schlegel et al., 2024), matched across EM datasets and identified at light level by Nern et al. (2025). Soma location is based on the closest annotated neuropil region in FlyWire.
