Somatic cell in the anterior germarium region 1, near the germline stem cells. There is a group of 3 cells asymmetrically positioned.
Obsoleted as this is equivalent to germarium cap cells (see FBrf0084162 fig 1). This term does not refer to transition cells (called basal cells in Forbes et al., 1996 - FBrf0087119).
