BM-MaPa [FBbt_00052799]

Mechanosensory neuron that has its dendrite in a maxillary palp bristle. It follows the maxillary nerve, joining the combined maxillary-labial nerve to enter the brain, terminating in the subesophageal zone (Eichler et al., 2024). There is one of these per maxillary palp bristle (around 15-20 per side) (Eichler et al., 2024).
