General Information
Term	adult lobula visual centrifugal neuron LoVC23	ID (Ontology)	FBbt:20011425 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition	Adult lobula visual centrifugal neuron of the LoVC23 group (Nern et al., 2025). It receives input in the contralateral lobula layer 6 and posterior lateral protocerebrum (Nern et al., 2025). It sends output to the contralateral lobula layer 6 and posterior lateral protocerebrum (Nern et al., 2025). Its predicted neurotransmitter is GABA (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 ]
Also Known As	"LoVC23"
Comment	Cell type identified in multiple EM datasets and at light level (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.
