LT87 [FBbt_20011484]

Adult lobula tangential neuron of the LT87 group (Nern et al., 2025). It belongs to the LHl4 posterior hemilineage (Nern et al., 2025). It receives input in the ipsilateral lobula layer 2, lobula layer 3, lobula layer 4, lobula layer 6, posterior ventrolateral protocerebrum, anterior ventrolateral protocerebrum, lobula layer 5A and lobula layer 5B (Nern et al., 2025). It sends output to the ipsilateral lobula layer 3, lobula layer 4, lobula layer 6, posterior ventrolateral protocerebrum, anterior ventrolateral protocerebrum, posterior lateral protocerebrum and lobula layer 5B (Nern et al., 2025). There is one of these cells per hemisphere (Nern et al., 2025).

Adult Neuron Visual system lineage LHl4 BLD1

Adult lobula tangential neuron of the LT87 group (Nern et al., 2025). It belongs to the LHl4 posterior hemilineage (Nern et al., 2025). It receives input in the ipsilateral lobula layer 2, lobula layer 3, lobula layer 4, lobula layer 6, posterior ventrolateral protocerebrum, anterior ventrolateral protocerebrum, lobula layer 5A and lobula layer 5B (Nern et al., 2025). It sends output to the ipsilateral lobula layer 3, lobula layer 4, lobula layer 6, posterior ventrolateral protocerebrum, anterior ventrolateral protocerebrum, posterior lateral protocerebrum and lobula layer 5B (Nern et al., 2025). There is one 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. Other information from Nern et al. (2025) supplements.
