MeVP34 [FBbt_20007624]

Adult unilateral visual projection neuron with its soma dorsal to the accessory medulla (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It receives most of its input in medulla layer M7, from around 20 columns (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It sends output to the superior and posterior lateral protocerebrum (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). There are approximately two of these cells per hemisphere (Nern et al., 2025).

Adult Nervous system Neuron Visual system

Adult unilateral visual projection neuron with its soma dorsal to the accessory medulla (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It receives most of its input in medulla layer M7, from around 20 columns (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It sends output to the superior and posterior lateral protocerebrum (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). There are approximately two of these cells per hemisphere (Nern et al., 2025).

Cell type from Schlegel et al. (2024), based on FlyWire v783 (FAFB) data (Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Schlegel et al., 2024), identified at light level by Nern et al. (2025). Soma location is based on the closest annotated neuropil region in FlyWire.
