LoVP26

ID: FBbt_20001934

Adult lobula visual projection neuron of the LoVP26 group (Nern et al., 2025). It belongs to the PSp3 hemilineage (Nern et al., 2025). It receives input in the ipsilateral lobula layer 6, superior posterior slope, lobula layer 5A and lobula layer 5B, the contralateral superior posterior slope, and the inferior bridge (Nern et al., 2025). It sends output to the ipsilateral superior posterior slope, the contralateral superior posterior slope, and the inferior bridge (Nern et al., 2025). There are approximately 6 of these cells per hemisphere (Nern et al., 2025).

Cell type identified in multiple EM datasets (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). Synapse locations are given where each cell of this type in neuprint has at least 10 connections. Hemilineage information from neuprint, though original source not clear. This cell type was originally hemibrain PS179 (Scheffer et al., 2020 - FBrf0246888). Modification to LoVP26 is a slight broadening of meaning. Other information from Nern et al. (2025) supplements.
