Group-III lobula descending neuron 3: DN with wide field innervation in the brain. (a) Neuronal morphology in the brain. The neuron has smooth processes in the inner lobula, posterior lateral protocerebrum (PLP), superior medial protocerebrum, posterior slope (PS), ventral lateral protocerebrum (VPC) and the lateral accessory lobe (LAL) of the ipsilateral hemisphere, and varicose processes in the PS and gnathal ganglion (GNG) of the contralateral hemisphere. The morphology is similar to the neuron shown in Fig. 14. (b) Schematic of the neuronal morphology. (c–e) Confocal stacks for innervation in the GNG (c), LAL and PS (d), and PLP and inner lobua (e). The depth from the posterior brain surface is shown in the top-right. (f) Reconstruction of the LAL shape and neuronal innervation. The innervation is biased toward the lateral side of the LAL.
