medulla layer M6 [FBbt_00003755]
Sixth most lateral layer of the medulla, immediately lateral to the serpentine layer. It lies between the lamina neuron L1’s arborization and the serpentine layer (Fischbach and Dittrich, 1989). In the literature there are two methods for describing spatial location of neurons in the visual system: distal-proximal (e.g. Fischbach and Dittrich, 1989), and medial-lateral (e.g. Ito et al., 2014), both meaning outer and inner, and refer to the distance of a structure along the visual pathway relative to the center of the brain. Currently we will adopt the classical ‘distal-proximal’.
