Descending neuron of the adult with its cell body in the posterior rind, below the mushroom body calyx. It arborizes in multiple antennal lobe glomeruli with non-glomerular arborizations and also innervates various other neuropil regions in both hemispheres. One branch arborizes in the anterior ventrolateral protocerebrum, then projects via the lateral antennal lobe tract to the superior clamp and the ventral area of the anterior superior lateral protocerebrum. Another branch projects to the ring neuropil. Another branch passes through, and arborizes in, the gnathal ganglion, then descends via the cervical connective to the ventral nerve cord. Tanaka et al. (2012) identified a single neuron of this type.
