Tm16 [FBbt_00003804]
Transmedullary wide-field neuron that terminates in lobula layers 4, 5 and 6 with fine arborizations, and with bleb-type arborizations in layers 5 and 6. It displays fine arborizations in medulla layers M1, M3, M4, M5, M8 and M9, and has bleb-type arborizations in layers M3, M4, M5, M8 and M9 (Morante and Desplan, 2008; Fischbach and Dittrich, 1989).
