ChaTnew1 neuron [FBbt_00110080]
T neuron whose cell body sits in the cortex adjacent to the gap between the medulla and lobula plate. Its cell body fibers project through this gap before branching in the second optic chiasm. One branch projects into medulla layer M10, the other branch forms a terminal arborization in lobula layers 1 and 2 and lobula plate layer 1. It is a cholinergic neuron (Varija Raghu et al., 2011).

One branch projects into medulla layer M10, the other branch forms a terminal arborization in lobula layers 1 and 2 and lobula plate layer 1. It is a cholinergic neuron (Varija Raghu et al., 2011).
The neurotransmitter was assessed by co-labelling cells with a Cha-GAL4.7.4 driver (FBtp0014830) and an anti-ChAT antibody (Varija Raghu et al., 2011).
