It is a putative embryonic-born neuron (Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Schlegel et al., 2024). It receives input in the superior posterior slope in both hemispheres, and the contralateral posterior lateral protocerebrum, and sends output to the contralateral lobula (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). In the lobula, it has terminals in around 100 columns of layers 3 and 4 (Nern et al., 2025). Its predicted neurotransmitter is GABA (Eckstein et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). There are approximately 2 of these cells per organism (Nern et al., 2025). Cell type from Schlegel et al. (2024), based on FlyWire v783 (FAFB) data (Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Schlegel et al., 2024), identified at light level by Nern et al. (2025). Soma location is based on the closest annotated neuropil region in FlyWire. LT35 FBbt:20007283 VFB:FBbt_20007283 bilateral
