larval mooncrawler descending neuron [FBbt_00048557]
Cholinergic descending neuron of the larva that can induce backwards locomotion. Its cell body is found in the ventral anterior medial brain and its processes descend to abdominal neuromeres 3-5 in the ventral nerve cord. There are two per hemisphere, which can be distinguished by their ipsilateral arbor, which is either linear (MDNa) or bushy (MDNb). It also projects via the posterior commissure to arborize contralaterally. A large proportion of its pre-synapses are to ThDN, pair1, and A18b neurons. It persists through metamorphosis and develops into an adult moonwalker descending neuron.
