Adult ascending fruitless neuron with its soma in the mesothoracic neuromere and an axonal projection to the subesophageal zone (Lillvis et al., 2024). In the male, it plays a role in pulse and sine song (Lillvis et al., 2024). There is one of these cells per hemisphere (Lillvis et al., 2024). It is cholinergic (Lillvis et al., 2024).
