MeVC9 [FBbt_20001206]

Adult medulla visual centrifugal neuron of the MeVC9 group (Nern et al., 2025. It belongs to the DM1 posterior hemilineage (Nern et al., 2025. It receives input in the ipsilateral antennal mechanosensory and motor center, vest, inferior clamp, wedge, superior posterior slope and inferior posterior slope, the contralateral medulla layer M6, medulla serpentine layer, antennal mechanosensory and motor center, vest, inferior clamp, superior posterior slope and inferior posterior slope, and the inferior bridge and saddle (Nern et al., 2025. It sends output to the ipsilateral vest and superior posterior slope, the contralateral medulla layer M6, medulla serpentine layer, medulla layer M8, vest, posterior lateral protocerebrum, superior posterior slope and inferior posterior slope, and the inferior bridge (Nern et al., 2025. Its predicted neurotransmitter is acetylcholine (Eckstein et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025. There is one of these cells per hemisphere (Nern et al., 2025. (Eckstein et al., 2024, Dorkenwald et al., 2024)

Adult Cholinergic Visual system lineage DM1 DPMm1

Adult medulla visual centrifugal neuron of the MeVC9 group (Nern et al., 2025. It belongs to the DM1 posterior hemilineage (Nern et al., 2025. It receives input in the ipsilateral antennal mechanosensory and motor center, vest, inferior clamp, wedge, superior posterior slope and inferior posterior slope, the contralateral medulla layer M6, medulla serpentine layer, antennal mechanosensory and motor center, vest, inferior clamp, superior posterior slope and inferior posterior slope, and the inferior bridge and saddle (Nern et al., 2025.

Its predicted neurotransmitter is acetylcholine (Eckstein et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025. There is one of these cells per hemisphere (Nern et al., 2025. (Eckstein et al., 2024, Dorkenwald et al., 2024)

Cell type identified in multiple EM datasets (Scheffer et al., 2020; 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.
