prothoracic tarsal retro depressor muscle motor neuron [FBbt_00053067]
Adult motor neuron that innervates a prothoracic tarsal retro depressor muscle and has its soma in the (anterior) prothoracic neuromere (Brierley et al., 2012; Azevedo et al., 2024). There is one of these cells per thoracic hemineuromere and it is a late-born lineage 15 secondary neuron (Brierley et al., 2012). Its dendritic arbors are predominantly in the ventral intermediate-lateral ipsilateral leg neuropil (Brierley et al., 2012) and it follows the prothoracic leg nerve (Azevedo et al., 2024).
