It has dendritic arborization in the flange and prow, axonal arborization in the neck neuropil, haltere neuropil and abdominal neuromere and both dendritic and axonal arborization in the gnathal ganglion (Sterne et al., 2021). In the brain it is bilateral, with similar innervation in each hemisphere, and it descends on the contralateral side (Sterne et al., 2021). There is one of these cells on each side (Sturner et al., 2025).
