Nod2 [FBbt_00053413]

Lobula plate tangential neuron of the noduli group that receives input in the central part of the lobula plate layer 1 visual field, spanning around 150 columns (Zhao et al., 2023; Nern et al., 2025). Some dendrites also reach layer 3 (Nern et al., 2025). It sends output mainly to the ipsilateral lateral accessory lobe and the contralateral inferior posterior slope (Dorkenwald et al., 2024; Schlegel et al., 2024). There is one of these cells per hemisphere (Zhao et al., 2023; Nern et al., 2025).
