There are multiple subtypes, of which most (but not all) target the medial lobe (Li et al., 2020). They all follow a mushroom body commissure to the contralateral mushroom body (Li et al., 2020). They are secondary neurons, with some belonging to the CREa1A (BAMd1A) hemilineage and some belonging to the CREa2A (DALcm1A) hemilineage (Lee et al., 2020; Truman et al., 2023).
