Synapse locations are given where each cell of this type in neuprint has at least 10 connections. fly_anatomy.ontology DNpe023 LAL201 DNpe023 Adult descending neuron of the posterior brain of the DNpe023 group (Berg et al., 2025). It receives input in the ipsilateral lateral accessory lobe, vest, wedge, superior posterior slope and inferior posterior slope, the contralateral lateral accessory lobe, gorget and vest, and the gnathal ganglion, saddle and intermediate tectulum (Berg et al., 2025). It sends output to the ipsilateral lateral accessory lobe and vest, the contralateral lateral accessory lobe, gorget, vest and inferior posterior slope, and the gnathal ganglion and intermediate tectulum (Berg et al., 2025). Its predicted neurotransmitter is acetylcholine (Eckstein et al., 2024; Berg et al., 2025). VFB:FBbt_20001497 DNit011 FBbt:20001497 DNit013 bilateral
