Li23 [FBbt_20007238]

Adult lobula intrinsic neuron of the Li23 group (Nern et al., 2025). It receives input in the ipsilateral lobula layer 6, lobula layer 5A and lobula layer 5B (Nern et al., 2025). It sends output to the ipsilateral lobula layer 6 (Nern et al., 2025). Its predicted neurotransmitter is acetylcholine (Eckstein et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). There are approximately 54 of these cells per hemisphere (Nern et al., 2025).
