Glial cell of the adult fly that is located in the optic chiasm (Tix et al., 1997. It develops from neuroblast DL1 (CP2) (Viktorin et al., 2013; Ren et al., 2018; Plazaola-Sasieta et al., 2019. Members of this group of glial cells are arranged in rows between successive dorsoventral sheets of intercrossing fibers of the outer and inner chiasmata (Edwards and Meinertzhagen, 2010; Tix et al., 1997. (Tix et al., 1997, Viktorin et al., 2013, Edwards and Meinertzhagen, 2010, Plazaola-Sasieta et al., 2019, Ren et al., 2018)
Kremer et al., 2017 and Ren et al., 2018 expression analysis suggests that these are types of ensheathing glia, with inner tract glia being synaptic neuropil ensheathing and outer tract glia being tract neuropil ensheathing.
