| Term | accessory medulla neuron aMe6a | ID (Ontology) | FBbt:00053488 (Fly Anatomy) |
| Definition | Adult unilateral visual projection neuron that receives input in the accessory medulla, extending into around 5 columns of medulla layer M1 (Nern et al., 2025). It sends output to the posterior lateral protocerebrum (Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Schlegel et al., 2024). It has its soma lateral to the medulla (Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Schlegel et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). It is predicted to be cholinergic (Eckstein et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). There is one of these cells per hemisphere (Nern et al., 2025).[ FlyBase:FBrf0259490 FlyBase:FBrf0260535 FlyBase:FBrf0260546 FlyBase:FBrf0262545 ] | ||
