Adult Nervous system Neuron

Adult fan-shaped body delta neuron that connects adjacent columns of the same layer of the fan-shaped body (Hanesch et al., 1989; Young and Armstrong, 2010).

See Figure 9 of Hanesch et al. (1989). According to Scheffer et al. (2020) and Hulse et al. (2021) hemibrain papers, all bicolumnar pontine neurons are separated by half the width of the FB (i.e P1 type), meaning that this cell type may not exist (but could just be absent from the hemibrain fly).
