MeVPMe1 [FBbt_20007609]

Adult visual projection neuron with its soma dorsal to the accessory medulla (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024. It belongs to the VPNl&d1 lateral hemilineage (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024. It has postsynapses in around 100 columns of the ipsilateral medulla layers M8-M10 and has presynapses in around 50 columns of the contralateral medulla layer M8 (Nern et al., 2025. It also sends output to the inferior posterior slope in both hemispheres (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024. Its predicted neurotransmitter is glutamate (Eckstein et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025. There are approximately 6 of these cells per hemisphere (Nern et al., 2025. (Dorkenwald et al., 2024, Eckstein et al., 2024)

(Dorkenwald et al., 2024, Eckstein et al., 2024)

Cell type from Schlegel et al., 2024, based on FlyWire v783 (FAFB) data (Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Schlegel et al., 2024, identified at light level by Nern et al., 2025. Soma location is based on the closest annotated neuropil region in FlyWire.
