Mi7 [FBbt_00003782]
Medulla intrinsic neuron with both fine and bleb-type arborizations in medulla layer M6, but with only fine arborizations in medulla layers M1, M3, M5 and M8. It is a cholinergic neuron (Varija Raghu et al., 2011).

Medulla intrinsic neuron with both fine and bleb-type arborizations in medulla layer M6, but with only fine arborizations in medulla layers M1, M3, M5 and M8. It is a cholinergic neuron (Varija Raghu et al., 2011).
The neurotransmitter was assessed by co-labelling cells with a Cha-GAL4.7.4 driver (FBtp0014830) and an anti-ChAT antibody (Varija Raghu et al., 2011). Pre- versus postsynaptic innervation judged by scoring of terminal morphology from figures in Fischbach and Dittrich (1989) as assessed by FlyBrain Neuron DB.
