It follows the occipital nerve and terminates in the subesophageal zone (Eichler et al., 2024). It remains ipsilateral in the brain (Eichler et al., 2024). There is one of these per dorsal postorbital bristle (around 7 per side) (Eichler et al., 2024). Its activity elicits head grooming behavior (Eichler et al., 2024). fly_anatomy.ontology FBbt:00052796 BM-dPoOr neuron BM-dPoOr adult subesophageal zone sensory perception grooming behavior detection of mechanical stimulus unilateral
