General Information
Term cantle ID (Ontology) FBbt:00045051 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition A small, bilaterally paired, triangular synaptic neuropil domain that lies at the posterior end of the saddle. It is clearly demarcated by glial boundaries.[ FlyBase:FBrf0212704 FlyBase:FBrf0224194 ]
Also Known As "CAN" ; "PENPp" ; "PONPp" (for all, see Synonyms field below)
Comment The name 'cantle' was taken from the seat-back part of the horse-riding saddle. The cantle corresponds to the ventroposterior part of the ventromedial protocerebrum (VMP) of Chiang et al. (2011) and to the posterior periesophageal neuropils (Ito et al., 2014).
