Tm34 [FBbt_00053516]

Transmedullary neuron that has pre- and post-synapses in medulla layer M7 and lobula layer 6, in around 5-10 columns of each (Nern et al., 2025). Its soma is found distal to the medulla (Nern et al., 2025). It is predicted to be glutamatergic (Eckstein et al., 2024; Nern et al., 2025). There are around 75-90 of these cells on each side (Nern et al., 2025).
