VS8 [FBbt_00053409]

Vertical system neuron that innervates lobula plate layers 1 and 4 (Zhao et al., 2023). It has a branch arborizing in the dorsal part of layer 1, in a slightly smaller region than VS7, and a branch arborizing in the posterior part of layer 4, with more dorsal coverage than VS7 (Zhao et al., 2023). Its primary dendrite is narrower than that of VS1-3, similar to VS4-7 (Zhao et al., 2023).
