One morphological type of tangential neuron supplying the upper later (FBu) of the fan-shaped body from two domains in the superior medial and superior intermediate protocerebrum. A: Reconstruction of the neurobiotin-filled neuron showing its varicose branches in the upper fan-shaped body (FBu) extending either side of the large terminal fiber. This derives from bifurcating branches that provide thick processes in a territory of the superior medial protocerebrum (SMP) and more delicate short processes at the lower margin of the superior intermediate protocerebrum (SIP). This neuron has its cell body in lateral cell body rind, behind the superior lateral protocerebrum. B: Confocal stack showing the density and vertical extent of terminal branches in the FBu. Branches do not invade the superior arch, and are restricted to strata 7 and 6, ending just above stratum 5, which lies beneath the dashed line.
