Adult uniglomerular antennal lobe projection neuron from the ad neuroblast (ALad1) lineage whose dendrites mainly innervate antennal lobe glomerulus DC4 (Ai et al., 2013; Bates et al., 2020). It follows the medial antennal lobe tract to innervate the mushroom body and lateral horn (Ai et al., 2013). Its axon bifurcates to form stereotypical dorsal and ventral branches in the anterior medial region of the lateral horn (Ai et al., 2013). There is around one of these per hemisphere, it fasciculates with the medial antennal lobe tract and it is cholinergic (Bates et al., 2020).

Ai et al. (2013) found 2-3 of these cells, but only one in Bates et al. (2020). One of these is embryonic-born according to Schlegel et al. (2021) Fig 6 S1, but 2 listed in supplement 5 csv.
