General Information
Term	neck muscle motor neuron of VNC	ID (Ontology)	FBbt:00051967 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition	Motor neuron of the ventral nerve cord that innervates a muscle of the neck (Phelps et al., 2021; Cheong et al., 2024). It has its soma in the prothoracic neuromere and receives input in the neck neuropil (Phelps et al., 2021).[ FlyBase:FBrf0247998 FlyBase:FBrf0259326 ]
Comment	Cheong et al. (2024) note that some neck muscle motor neurons have somas in the brain.
