General Information
Term embryonic/larval ventrolateral protocerebrum ID (Ontology) FBbt:00007068 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition One of a group of synaptic neuropil domains of the larval brain which are located ventral to the mushroom body and are grouped around the long axon tracts connecting the larval protocerebrum to the ventral nerve cord. This compartment contacts the antennal lobe posteriorly, and is lateral to the lateral accessory lobe and ventromedial cerebrum. It grows anteriorly during larval development. It is the larval counterpart of the adult ventrolateral protocerebrum.[ FlyBase:FBrf0155900 FlyBase:FBrf0211016 ]
Also Known As "baso-posterior lateral synaptic neuropil compartment" ; "baso-posterior lateral synaptic neuropil domain" ; "basoposterior lateral compartment" (for all, see Synonyms field below)
Comment Developmental relation to adult synaptic neuropil domains comes from a personal communication from Volker Hartenstein. Note - description of relative location of brain structures in this definition is based on Younossi-Hartenstein et al., 2003 description of the first instar larval brain and Pereanu et al., 2010 third instar larval brain.
