DLMN4 [FBbt_00004078]

Motor neuron that innervates the dorsal longitudinal indirect flight muscle 4 (45c) (Ikeda and Koenig, 1988). Its soma is found ipsilateral to its innervated muscle, ventrally at the border between the pro- and meso-thoracic neuromeres, clustered with the somas of DLMN1-3 (Ikeda and Koenig, 1988). Its large soma is in a relatively ventral posterior position within the cluster (Ikeda and Koenig, 1988). A branch travels towards the dorsal midline of the mesothoracic neuromere and has dendritic arborization mainly ipsilaterally, with some also contralaterally (Ikeda and Koenig, 1988). Its axon exits the ventral nerve cord in the posterior dorsal mesothoracic nerve (Ikeda and Koenig, 1988).
