General Information
Term lobula tangential neuron LT6 ID (Ontology) FBbt:00003865 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition A lobula tangential neuron with a thick projection that branches extensively immediately after entering the proximal side of the lobula. Each branch extends across the lobula, with some bifurcating, before all form terminal arbors that collectively cover the length of lobula layers 2 to 6. Terminals are of mixed morphology. It is a GABAergic neuron.[ FlyBase:FBrf0049410 FlyBase:FBrf0220286 ]
Also Known As "lobular tangential neuron LT6" ; "LT6"
