LPT101

ID: FBbt_20001707

Adult lobula plate tangential neuron with its soma medial to the lobula plate (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). It belongs to the VLPp&l1 lateral hemilineage (Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Schlegel et al., 2024). It remains ipsilateral and its main region of input and output is the posterior lateral protocerebrum (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It also receives input from all layers of the lobula plate in up to 5 columns (Nern et al., 2025). Its predicted neurotransmitter is acetylcholine (Eckstein et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). There are approximately 5-6 of these cells per hemisphere (Nern et al., 2025).

Cell type based on Hemibrain data (Scheffer et al., 2020), updated using FlyWire (FAFB) data (Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Schlegel et al., 2024) and identified at light level by Nern et al. (2025). Soma location is based on the closest annotated neuropil region in FlyWire.
