Pm7 [FBbt_20007265]

Adult proximal medullary amacrine neuron with its soma in the optic lobe (Nern et al., 2025). It has its pre- and post-synapses in medulla layers M9-M10, spanning around 100 columns (Nern et al., 2025). Its predicted neurotransmitter is GABA (Eckstein et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). There are approximately 15 of these cells per hemisphere (Nern et al., 2025).
