LoVP102 [FBbt_20007587]

Adult visual projection neuron with its soma in the optic lobe (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). It remains ipsilateral, receiving input in the lobula and sending output to the anterior and posterior ventrolateral protocerebrum (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). In the lobula, it mainly arborizes in layer 5, spanning around 300 columns (Nern et al., 2025). There is one of these cells per hemisphere (Nern et al., 2025).
