LC15

ID: FBbt_00111750

Lobula columnar neuron whose cell body lies in the ventral area of the lateral cell body rind (Wu et al., 2016). It has a complex multilayer pattern in the lobula, with dense arbors in layers 2/3, 3/4, 5A/5B and 5B/6 (Wu et al., 2016), with 5A/5B having most synapses (Tanaka and Clark, 2022). Presynaptic sites are observed in layers 4 and 5 (Wu et al., 2016). Its arbors span approximately 25 optic columns, overlapping with other LC15 cells (Wu et al., 2016). It projects to the most lateral of the dorsal group of optic glomeruli of the PVLP (Wu et al., 2016). There are around 70 cells of this type (Wu et al., 2016).

Pre- versus postsynaptic innervation assessed with a presynaptic marker (synaptotagmin-HA driver) (Wu et al., 2016).
