Li2 [FBbt_00003884]

Lobula intrinsic neuron with wide-field tangential arborization along lobula layers 1 and 2 (Fischbach and Dittrich, 1989; Nern et al., 2025). Its cell body is found in the optic lobe and its primary neurite follows the surface of the lobula, entering close to its region of arborization (Fischbach and Dittrich, 1989; Nern et al., 2025).

Lobula intrinsic neuron with wide-field tangential arborization along lobula layers 1 and 2 (Fischbach and Dittrich, 1989; Nern et al., 2025). Its cell body is found in the optic lobe and its primary neurite follows the surface of the lobula, entering close to its region of arborization (Fischbach and Dittrich, 1989; Nern et al., 2025).

Li2 identified in FlyWire (Schlegel et al., 2024; Dorkenwald et al., 2024) and mapped to optic lobe dataset, where it is called Li28 (Nern et al., 2025). EM neuron morphology appears highly similar to that shown in Fischbach and Dittrich (1989), but more cells identified.
