MeVP30 [FBbt_20007631]

Adult medulla visual projection neuron of the MeVP30 group (Nern et al., 2025). It receives input in the ipsilateral medulla layer M5, medulla layer M6, medulla serpentine layer and posterior lateral protocerebrum (Nern et al., 2025). It sends output to the ipsilateral medulla layer M6, medulla serpentine layer, posterior lateral protocerebrum, superior clamp and inferior clamp (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).
