wind sensitive wedge projection neuron [FBbt_00048517]
Projection neuron that receives input in the wedge and is activated by wind (Suver et al., 2019). Its soma is found near the lateral horn and it has a ventral projection to the ipsilateral wedge, where it branches extensively, then a dorsal projection to the antler and superior clamp, in many cases the neuron then extends across the midline to the contralateral antler and superior clamp (Suver et al., 2019; Coates et al., 2020). This is a large anatomical class with different individual neurons having different tunings (Suver et al., 2019). The two ‘wedge projection neurons’ (WPN) identified by Suver et al. (2019) are a subset of this larger class of wind sensitive wedge projection neurons that have outputs in the ipsilateral and contralateral superior clamp and antler.
