General Information
Term adult lobula complex astrocyte-like glial cell ID (Ontology) FBbt:00049501 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition Astrocyte-like (reticular) glial cell with its soma at the surface of either the adult lobula or lobula plate (lobula complex) neuropil regions (Kremer et al., 2017). These cells take many shapes and sizes and may form branches into one or both neuropils (Kremer et al., 2017).[ FlyBase:FBrf0234767 ]
Also Known As "adult lobula complex ALG" ; "adult lobula complex reticular glial cell"
Comment Cells additionally projecting into the medulla are mentioned, but not shown in images or diagram, by Kremer et al. (2017). Not clear if these should fall under this class - part_of may need revising - https://orcid.org/0000-0002-1373-1705.
