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. fly_anatomy.ontology Adult lobula plate tangential neuron of the LPT60 group (Nern et al., 2025). It receives input in the ipsilateral lateral accessory lobe, lobula plate layer 1, lobula plate layer 4, superior lateral protocerebrum, anterior optic tubercle, gorget, epaulette, posterior ventrolateral protocerebrum, anterior ventrolateral protocerebrum, posterior lateral protocerebrum, superior clamp, inferior clamp, wedge, superior intermediate protocerebrum, superior posterior slope, inferior posterior slope and cantle, the contralateral superior posterior slope and flange, and the gnathal ganglion and saddle (Nern et al., 2025). It sends output to the ipsilateral lateral accessory lobe, lobula layer 2, lobula layer 3, lobula layer 4, lobula plate layer 1, lobula plate layer 4, antennal mechanosensory and motor center, gorget, vest, posterior ventrolateral protocerebrum, anterior ventrolateral protocerebrum, posterior lateral protocerebrum, inferior clamp, wedge, superior posterior slope, inferior posterior slope, flange and cantle, the contralateral gorget, vest, wedge, superior posterior slope and cantle, and the gnathal ganglion and saddle (Nern et al., 2025). Its predicted neurotransmitter is acetylcholine (Eckstein et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). There is one of these cells per hemisphere (Nern et al., 2025).
