I took this thing a little bit further. Here’s the current result (thanks @st0ck53y for helping me figuring out some of them!):

I’ve claimed the yellow merger. The first missing part I added is the violet merger

FlyWire These 5 were merged and i dont think 2 nucleuses are possible in a single CB so i dont even know what those 2 cells’ deal is but there are no bordersssss!!

According to this paper, it’s actually possible, that neurons’ bodies can fuse:
Very interesting.

lol, this feels like a black swan moment (before the europeans started colonizing/travelling outside of europe/north africa etc region they had only ever seen white swans, so ofc their reality was that all swans can ever white, then at some point in 1700s-1800s they travelled to and started colonizing Australia and there they found black swans, ofc at 1st the first letters were met with skepticism if not downright denial (reminds you of anything?) then at some point a live black swan was brought over to Europe and after they tried to wash it off (bc ofc it had to be white and dyed black…lol) they accepted that swans can in fact be black as well as white). So we (players froim ew/me/us etc lol) used to think that 1 cb= 1 nucleus= anything else must be fused/merger… and now this paper/you just blew this out of the water 
lol

Interesting history. Never heard of it.

Encountered my first Mi13 in the wild. Surprised me at first, as I had no soma yet and I mentally had oriented the cell “upside down” before turning on the neuropils. See @ FlyWire

weird cell looks like it wants to be a T4-5 but isnt…lol

My biggest bundle so far (over 550 cells). You can even see layers in Medulla and Lobula Plate:
I guess, the bundle above that might fill the other halves of all three neuropils visible. Or maybe the one below, lol.

Quite unusual connection to the CB:

Interesting structure just outside of the Medulla. There are no somas in there, just axonal (?) terminals:

Cool! Emil says " Great find! It’s an LC celltype. From looking at this paper I would guess these are LC17s. This recent paper suggest that they are looming sensors."

I haz done it, a CB layer fully ‘traced’ (not all the cells are completed by me but they’re all there in the pics), 3152 cells in total (and counting) 
:
Only stuff not in pic are the humongosaurous cells and/or glia and 1-2 CBs that were pinched and couldn’t find backbone(s). Those are left out.
