| Term | adult medulla-contralateral medulla neuron MeVPMe8 | ID (Ontology) | FBbt:20007605 (Fly Anatomy) |
| Definition | Adult medulla-contralateral medulla neuron of the MeVPMe8 group (Nern et al., 2025). It belongs to the VPNl&d1 lateral hemilineage (Nern et al., 2025). It receives input in the ipsilateral medulla layer M6 and medulla serpentine layer (Nern et al., 2025). It sends output to the ipsilateral medulla layer M6, medulla serpentine layer and inferior posterior slope, and the contralateral medulla serpentine layer and inferior posterior slope (Nern et al., 2025). Its predicted neurotransmitter is glutamate (Eckstein et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). There are approximately 2 of these cells per hemisphere (Nern et al., 2025).[ FlyBase:FBrf0259490 FlyBase:FBrf0260535 FlyBase:FBrf0260546 FlyBase:FBrf0262545 ] | ||

| Comment | Cell type identified in multiple EM datasets (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). Synapse locations are given where each cell of this type in neuprint has at least 10 connections. Hemilineage information from neuprint, though original source not clear. Other information from Nern et al. (2025) supplements. | ||
