LPi2d [FBbt_00053466]

Lobula plate intrinsic neuron that spans around 20 columns of layers 1 and 2, with mixed pre- and post-synapses (Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Schlegel et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). It is predicted to be glutamatergic (Eckstein et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). There are around 25-50 of these cells on each side (Nern et al., 2025).
