General Information
Term medulla layer M2 ID (Ontology) FBbt:00003751 (Fly Anatomy)
Definition Second most lateral layer of the medulla. It is defined by the distal extent of the distal lamina monopolar neuron L2 arborization (Fischbach and Dittrich, 1989).[ FlyBase:FBrf0049410 FlyBase:FBrf0205531 FlyBase:FBrf0224194 ]
Also Known As "L2 layer" ; "layer M2" ; "medulla layer 2" (for all, see Synonyms field below)
Comment In the literature there are two methods for describing spatial location of neurons in the visual system: distal-proximal (e.g. Fischbach and Dittrich, 1989), and medial-lateral (e.g. Ito et al., 2014), both meaning outer and inner, and refer to the distance of a structure along the visual pathway relative to the center of the brain. Currently we will adopt the classical 'distal-proximal'.
