Adult Nervous system Synaptic neuropil subdomain

A concentric subdivision of the ellipsoid body resulting from the arborization patterns of the ring neurons (FBbt:00003649).

Nomenclature for the layers is not consistent. Layers have been updated to correspond to Omoto et al. (2018), who claim to have a mostly complete map of R-neuron arborizations and provide mappings to previous terminology - https://orcid.org/0000-0002-1373-1705.
