Proposed adult identity of AF-5:

Dorsal accessory optic nucleus or Nucleus accessorius opticus dorsalis (Baier & Wullimann, 2021),

Schematic showing the approximate location of AF-5 in a 6dpf zebrafish. The optic tract is labelled in the Tg(atoh7:RFP) transgenic line and position of AFs are based on the data from Robles (2014).
