LT11 [FBbt_00100487]
A lobula tangential neuron whose cell body is located in the anterior dorsal area of the lateral cell body region. It forms varicosities in lobula layers 3, 4 and 5, and in the ventrolateral protocerebrum. It receives substantial synaptic input from Tm5a/b/c and Tm20 neurons, with a small number of synapses from each of a large number of Tm cells (Lin et al., 2016). There is only one neuron of this type per hemisphere.
