MeVC25

ID: FBbt_20007305

Adult medulla visual centrifugal neuron of the MeVC25 group (Nern et al., 2025). It receives input in the ipsilateral lateral accessory lobe, medulla layer M3, medulla layer M4, medulla layer M5, medulla layer M8, medulla layer M9, medulla layer M10, lobula layer 1, lobula layer 2, lobula layer 3, lobula layer 4, antennal mechanosensory and motor center, gorget, epaulette, vest, posterior ventrolateral protocerebrum, anterior ventrolateral protocerebrum, posterior lateral protocerebrum, inferior clamp, wedge, superior posterior slope, inferior posterior slope, lobula layer 5A and lobula layer 5B, and the gnathal ganglion and saddle (Nern et al., 2025). It sends output to the ipsilateral medulla layer M3, medulla layer M4, medulla layer M5, medulla layer M6, medulla serpentine layer, medulla layer M8, medulla layer M9, medulla layer M10, lobula layer 1, lobula layer 2, lobula layer 3, lobula layer 4, posterior ventrolateral protocerebrum, inferior posterior slope, lobula layer 5A and lobula layer 5B (Nern et al., 2025). Its predicted neurotransmitter is glutamate (Eckstein et al., 2024; 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. Other information from Nern et al. (2025) supplements.
