ID: FBbt_00049731

Adult antennal lobe projection neuron whose dendrites mainly innervate the antennal lobe glomeruli VP2 and VM6 in both hemispheres (Marin et al., 2020). There is one of these cells per hemisphere and it belongs to the ALl1 (BAlc) ventral hemilineage (Marin et al., 2020; Bates et al., 2020). It follows the ipsilateral lateral antennal lobe tract to the dorsal part of the posterior lateral protocerebrum, then turns ventrally (Lin et al., 2012; Marin et al., 2020).

Bates et al. (2020) list this as uniglomerular, but there are two glomeruli in its name. VC5 glomerulus in Bates et al. (2020) and Marin et al. (2020) is now known as VM6 (Schlegel et al., 2021 - FBrf0249560).
