MBON16 [FBbt_00111063]

Subtype of the mushroom body ventral lobe arborizing neuron 2 alpha’. It arborizes in the alpha’ slice 3 anterior-posterior domain and its axon projects to a region ventral to the lateral horn. There is one of these cells per hemisphere (Li et al., 2020; Truman et al., 2023) and it is a DL1 (CP2) secondary neuron (Truman et al., 2023).
