| Term | adult lobula visual centrifugal neuron LoVC18 | ID (Ontology) | FBbt:20001530 (Fly Anatomy) |
| Definition | Adult visual centrifugal neuron with its soma lateral to the wedge (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It is a putative embryonic-born neuron (Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Schlegel et al., 2024). The ipsilateral lobula is its main input and output region (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It also receives input in the ipsilateral posterior lateral protocerebrum, superior posterior slope, anterior and posterior ventrolateral protocerebrum, and inferior clamp (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). It sends multiple branches into the proximal lobula, spanning over 100 columns in layers 5 and 6 (Nern et al., 2025). Its predicted neurotransmitter is dopamine (Eckstein et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). There are approximately 1-2 of these cells per hemisphere (Nern et al., 2025).[ FlyBase:FBrf0246888 FlyBase:FBrf0259490 FlyBase:FBrf0260535 FlyBase:FBrf0260546 FlyBase:FBrf0262545 ] | ||
| Also Known As | "adult posterior lateral protocerebrum neuron 030" ; "cL16" ; "LoVC18" (for all, see Synonyms field below) | ||
| Comment | Cell type based on Hemibrain data (Scheffer et al., 2020) updated using FlyWire (FAFB) data (Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Schlegel et al., 2024), matched across datasets and identified at light level by Nern et al. (2025). | ||
