There are 12 of these cells, four of which express doublesex (Ghosh et al., 2019). In females, doublesex-positive neuroblasts die during larval stages (Ghosh et al., 2019).
Neuroblast found in a terminal abdominal neuromere of the larval ventral nerve cord that exits quiescence in early larval stages (Ghosh et al., 2019). There are 12 of these cells in each terminal region (consisting of A8-A10), four of which express doublesex (dsx) and die (before proliferating) in female second instar larvae (Birkholz et al., 2013; Ghosh et al., 2019). At least two of the dsx neuroblasts are NB5-4 (Birkholz et al., 2013).
A neuroblast that is the precursor of the lobula. The neuroblasts that give rise to the lobula neurons are located in the larval inner optic anlage.
Glioblast that generates the interface (longitudinal) glia of the embryo, which become neuropil glia in the larva (Beckervordersandforth et al., 2008). It delaminates during embryonic stage 10, in the third wave of delamination (Doe, 1992). In the embryo, one of these cells can be found in each hemisegment from S2-A10 (Birkholz et al., 2013; Urbach et al., 2016). It divides once, symmetrically, to produce two glial cells (Klambt and Goodman, 1991). One of these cells appears to become the lateral posterior longitudinal glial cell and the other proliferates to generate a total of eight embryonic interface glial cells (Peco et al., 2016). It does not generate a secondary lineage (Lacin and Truman, 2016).

Midline precursor neuron of the ventral nerve cord posterior to MP1 precursor. It divides once, during embryonic development, to give rise to the interneurons H-cell and the H-cell sib.
Neuroblast that is the precursor to the Kenyon cells (Kunz et al., 2012). There are four of these per hemisphere and they each arise from a distinct neuroectodermal progenitor and produce morphologically distinct primary lineages (Kunz et al., 2012). They continue to divide from the embryonic to the late pupal stage (Lee et al., 1999; Kunz et al., 2012). All four produce largely identical lineages postembryonically (Ito et al., 2013; Yu et al., 2013), sequentially producing gamma, alpha’/beta’ and alpha/beta Kenyon cells (Lee et al., 1999; Kunz et al., 2012). In the adult, each lineage remains distinct within the calyx and pedunculus, but the axons reorganize and intermingle within the lobes (Li et al., 2020). See Ito et al. (2013) figure S1 for distinction between MBp1-4.
Neuroblast that generates three types of antennal lobe projection neuron; uniglomerular, biglomerular and multiglomerular, which all tend to send axons to glomeruli of the mushroom body calyx (Das et al., 2013). The neurons have cell bodies on the anterior-dorsal surface of the antennal lobe in the adult (Jefferis et al., 2001; Yu et al., 2013).
Neuroblast that generates antennal lobe neurons with laterally-located cell bodies in the adult (Jefferis et al., 2001; Yu et al., 2013). It skips the quiescent period beginning in late embryogenesis and produces a large number of neurons (200 or more) (Yu et al., 2013). It produces various multiglomerular and oligoglomerular primary local interneurons, many of which also project to the neighboring subesophageal neuropil (Das et al., 2013). Eckstein et al.

Neuroblast that generates antennal lobe projection neurons with cell bodies in a cluster found ventral to the antennal lobe in the adult (Jefferis et al., 2001; Yu et al., 2013). This lineage mainly generates neurons with only short branches into the antennal lobe and more extensive ones into the adjacent basal brain compartments posterior to the antennal lobe. It also generates a few oligoglomerular and multiglomerular primary projection neurons (Das et al., 2013). Some neurons of this lineage, referred to as extra-antennal BAla1 projection neurons, do not enter the antennal lobe (Das et al., 2013).
Neuroblast that generates primary local interneurons of diverse multiglomerular and oligoglomerular types (Das et al., 2013). These neurons have their cell bodies in a cluster of the ventral side of the antennal lobe in the adult (Yu et al., 2013).
Basoanterior neuroblast (Pereanu and Hartenstein, 2006). In the larva, these neuroblasts are located around the antennal compartment (Pereanu et al., 2006). Some of these form the ventral deutocerebrum and two are tritocerebral (Pereanu and Hartenstein, 2006; Kuert et al., 2012).
Neuroblast that generates primary local interneurons of diverse multiglomerular and oligoglomerular types (Das et al., 2013). These neurons have their cell bodies in a cluster of the ventral side of the antennal lobe in the adult (Yu et al., 2013).
Neuroblast of the deutocerebrum (Kumar et al., 2009) that generates a basoanterior secondary lineage that is closely associated with the BAla4 lineage in the late larval brain (Pereanu and Hartenstein, 2006; Wong et al., 2013). Its primary and secondary lineages enter the larval brain at the ventrolateral antennal lobe, alongside the BAla4 neurons (Lovick et al., 2013; Hartenstein et al., 2015). There are approximately 29 cells of this lineage in the adult, collectively innervating many neuropil regions (Ito et al., 2013; Yu et al., 2013).

Although all of these lineages will correspond to a lineage from a known primary neuroblast lineage, only some will correspond to lineages from the secondary neuroblast division.

Neuroblast with a relatively ventromedial location in the basoanterior larval brain (Pereanu and Hartenstein, 2006). It generates a lineage similar to that of BAmv2 (PSa1), entering the neuropil close to the antennal lobe and contributing to the medial longitudinal ventral fascicle in both adult and larva (Lovick et al., 2013; Hartenstein et al., 2015). Its secondary lineage develops a more complex branching pattern that of the BAmv2 lineage (Wong et al., 2013). In the adult, its lineage has approximately 100 cells, with strongest innervation in the fan-shaped body and noduli (Ito et al., 2013; Yu et al., 2013).

A neuroblast located in the protocerebrum. None of these are serial homologues of neuroblasts found in the thoracic neuromeres (Urbach et al., 2016).
Progeny of the type II neuroblast that divides between 4 and 8 times to produce another secondary neuroblast and GMC, which further divides to produce a pair of neurons, glia or mixed neuronal/glial progeny (Bayraktar et al., 2010, Viktorin et al., 2011). There is heterogeneity regarding the gliogenic potential of the different secondary neuroblasts: some secondary neuroblasts will produce only glia, mixed glial/neuronal clones or only neurons and rarely glia. The glial lineage is located closer to the midline commissural region and more spatially dispersed toward the neuropile than the neuronal cells (Viktorin et al., 2011).
Neuroblast that has serial homologues across multiple neuromeres. All neuroblasts of the ventral nerve cord and gnathal ganglia are segmentally-repeated (Urbach et al., 2016). Most neuroblasts of the tritocerebrum and some neuroblasts of the deutocerebrum also have serial homology to neuroblasts of more posterior segments (Urbach et al., 2016). Applies to neuroblasts at all stages of development [FBC:CP].

The first neuroblast subpopulation delaminating from the ventral neurectoderm towards the end of the second mesodermal cell division, shortly after gastrulation (Hartenstein and Campos-Ortega, 1984). These neuroblasts are generally arranged in two fairly regular longitudinal rows (the medial and lateral longitudinal rows), with a few cells scattered in an intermediate row. Doe (1992) defines the end of S1 as being early embryonic stage 9 following the development of NB3-2.
A neuroblast delaminating in the second wave of neuroblast delamination from the ventral neuroectoderm. This stage begins in embryonic stage 9 ending in stage 10, and the neuroblasts primarily delaminate into the intermediate column (Doe, 1992).
