transient interhemispheric fibrous ring [FBbt_00051435]

Fibrous structure found at the midline of the pupal brain, between the two mushroom bodies, that has a ring-like morphology when viewed in the sagittal plain (Simon et al., 1998). It is a highly organized structure of characteristic loops and hooks that is formed by four interhemispheric glial cells (Simon et al., 1998; Hitier et al., 2000). It has a scaffolding role, contributing to the organisation of adult brain regions, particularly the central complex (Simon et al., 1998; Hitier et al., 2000). It begins to be formed during third instar larval stage and disappears prior to eclosion (Simon et al., 1998).
