(2025). Pre- or post-synapse locations are the fewest regions that collectively contain at least 80 percent of all pre- or post-synapses of these neurons in FlyWire. Adult descending neuron with its soma posterior to the gnathal ganglion (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). In the brain, it has postsynapses in the ipsilateral inferior and superior posterior slope, and presynapses in the gnathal ganglion and the ipsilateral posterior lateral protocerebrum and superior posterior slope (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024). In the VNC, it follows the median tract of dorsal cervical fasciculus II (Sturner et al., 2025). Its predicted neurotransmitter is acetylcholine (Eckstein et al., 2024). There are approximately 2-4 of these cells per organism (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Sturner et al., 2025). DNg82 VFB:FBbt_20007519
