Tlp5 [FBbt_00003895]
Translobula plate neuron that receives input mainly in around 30 columns of lobula plate layer 1, but also layers 2-3 (Nern et al., 2025). There are also a smaller number of presynapses in the lobula plate, particularly in layer 1 (Nern et al., 2025). In the lobula, it has pre- and post-synapses mainly in layers 4-5A, spanning around 20 columns (Nern et al., 2025). It is predicted to be glutamatergic (Eckstein et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2024). There are around 30 of these cells per hemisphere (Nern et al., 2025).
