upper tectulum [FBbt_00049994]

Dorsalmost layer of the tectulum that sits dorsal to the dorsal median tract and haltere tract (Court et al., 2020). The upper tectulum can be further segregated on the basis of the synapse rich neuropil regions into three segment-specific neuropils; a prothoracic neck neuropil, a mesothoracic wing neuropil and a metathoracic haltere neuropil (Court et al., 2020).
