General Information
Term adult medulla visual projection neuron MeVP18 ID (Ontology) FBbt:20007622 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition Adult medulla visual projection neuron of the MeVP18 group (Nern et al., 2025). It receives input in the ipsilateral medulla layer M6, medulla serpentine layer, medulla layer M8, medulla layer M9, posterior ventrolateral protocerebrum, anterior ventrolateral protocerebrum and wedge (Nern et al., 2025). It sends output to the ipsilateral posterior ventrolateral protocerebrum, anterior ventrolateral protocerebrum and wedge (Nern et al., 2025). There are approximately 3 of these cells per hemisphere (Nern et al., 2025).[ FlyBase:FBrf0260535 FlyBase:FBrf0260546 FlyBase:FBrf0262545 ]
Also Known As "MeVP18"
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. Other information from Nern et al. (2025) supplements.
