Tm5Y
ID: FBbt_00003831
Transmedullary narrow field neuron that terminates in lobula layers 4 and 5 with bleb-type arborizations. It displays fine arborizations in medulla layers M3, M4, M5, M6, M8 and the serpentine layer, and has bleb-type terminals in layers M6 and M8 (Morante and Desplan, 2008; Fischbach and Dittrich, 1989). It differs from transmedullary neuron Tm and transmedullary Y neuron TmY5 in that individuals of a retinotopic set may or may not form branches in the lobula plate (Fischbach and Dittrich, 1989).
Pre- versus postsynaptic innervation judged by scoring of terminal morphology from figures in Fischbach and Dittrich (1989) as assessed by FlyBrain Neuron DB.
