MBON28 [FBbt_00049848]

Atypical mushroom body output neuron whose dendrites arborize in the alpha’ lobe slice 3 (Li et al., 2020). It also has dendritic arborization outside of the mushroom body, predominantly in the superior intermediate protocerebrum (Li et al., 2020). Its presynaptic terminals are also found mainly in the posterior lateral protocerebrum (Li et al., 2020). There is 1 neuron of this type in each hemisphere (Li et al., 2020).
