General Information
Term descending neuron of the anterior dorsal brain DNa03 ID (Ontology) FBbt:00047574 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition Descending neuron belonging to the DNa group, having a cell body on the anterior dorsal surface of the brain (Namiki et al., 2018). This neuron does not cross the midline and descends on the ipsilateral side of the cervical connective (Namiki et al., 2018). It has neurites in the lateral accessory lobe (LAL), inferior posterior slope, superior posterior slope, vest, gnathal ganglion and intermediate tectulum (Namiki et al., 2018). It fasciculates with the median tract of the dorsal cervical fascicle in the ventral nerve cord (Namiki et al., 2018). There is one of these cells per hemisphere (Namiki et al., 2018). It receives input from atypical mushroom body output neurons in the LAL, it also receives visual input from a subset of the lobula tangential LT51 neurons (Li et al., 2020). It outputs onto DNa02 (Li et al., 2020).[ FlyBase:FBrf0239335 FlyBase:FBrf0248215 ]
