What type of cell it is?

The ones with the axon were C cells. The purple one isn’t a C cell, because it has its CB in a wrong place. It also isn’t a T4, because they have their soma neurite go through the LP and the CB itself should be in the LP cortex. It might be a Tm cell.

As for the red one - maybe an Lccn2?

aaaand to no one’s surprise i am wrong, lol

lccn2 looks like a good possibility, might be a tm, nothing surpraise me with them

Need some help both IDing and proofing a cell, because it was marked as complete before I added to it, and I’m not 100% that there’s not a weird misalignment situation going on here - but knowing the overall structure I am supposed to be looking at would help.

The branch with a line marked here is the one I added that was merged to another cell.

I’m not sure about it, but I think, the thinner trace might be an LPi cell and the thicker is missing its soma. Because it goes deeper into the central brain, it might not exist in the Fischbach’s paper.

I’m still searching through some papers for these cells, but the thicker cell is putatively a LC-type (lobula columnar cell; maybe LC10d?): FlyWire (I’ve hidden an orange completed friend cell for reference).

The thin one is a lobula cell (could be lobula intrinsic (Li)? not sure). There are bunch of similar completed friends (hidden in the link; yellow is a little bit different and has a separate axonal cluster): FlyWire

Update: Okay, I think that the thin one is a Li-type; probably an Li14. KK previously posted up some examples of putative Li cells from the NEUprint site here: Visual Cell Type Illustrations - #31 by Krzysztof_Kruk Direct link to the Li14 cell here: neuPrintExplorer)

what kind of cell is this? I might ofc be missing something, but have checkhed everything i can think of, and not close too anything i can remember too have seen in that area before.

Judging by its location, it’s probably a Dm (unless it has some missing extensions, but I didn’t find anything). Maybe an underdeveloped Dm4? That type has some twirly branches, just like yours.

Found a couple more extensions. Havent merged in case im wrong. FlyWire where the annotation is there’s a misalignment i cant get past, may nub out may continue idk.

I’ve added some more on top of yours:

okay this is definitivly starting too look more cell like FlyWire
but probably still miss half of the extensions

did run across this one in the medulla.
not seeing any extension and no idea what kind of cell this two could be, remind me a bit of a lawf, but then i am missing a great many elements + some mergers.

Those are probably Mi cells. I’d say, something from Mi5 - Mi7. Also, the second branch in the light green cell is most probably a merger.

Found you the CBs and some other minor stuff twigs removed that merger on the right of your pic etc: FlyWire

Interesting. With the CBs in these places, they don’t look anything like Dms. They don’t look like anything from Fischbach.

i’ve completed cells like these before, if it wasnt for the fact that they are missing the ‘umbrella’ like boutons at the end of the axonal stems theyd look a lot like LAWFs, they may be and be missing the final boutons, didn’t check at the end of the axons. But, in the past ive completed 2-3 of what i thought originally would be LAWFs but they ended up having a singular bouton at the end of the axon vs the umbrella like or grape like structure. Idk maybe theyre one of the cells we dont have examples/pictures of in the gsheet tab? Or a new cell type/subtype not recorded in Fischbach?

EDIT: Checked both axons end in singular boutons, the one on the left is missing a segment but then end of bouton is outside of the tracable dataset.

yes, Lawf are the closest ones with the CB being somewhere in the middle of the cell. But they usually have much more synaptic terminals at both ends. Maybe that’s how they look like, when they are near the edge of the medulla.

Yeah theyre missing said synaptic terminals (the umbrella lol) but otherwise theyre quite similar, maybe a new subtype.

Thank you for finding the cb and removing the merger (i was really unsure if it belonged or not)
agree that it is probably some type of lawf

Any idea what these dual hemisphere neurons are? Finding I interface a lot with them in proofing through the lobula plate.
