The adult Drosophila connectome: ~130,000 neurons and ~50 million synapses at synaptic resolution, public via FlyWire/Codex with an API. Concrete data for a connectome-constrained network.
A Drosophila connectome is a list of neurons in the Drosophila melanogaster nervous system, and the chemical synapses between them. The fly’s central nervous system consists of the brain plus the ventral nerve cord, and both are known to differ considerably between male and female. Complete or partial connectomes exist for the female adult brain, the male and female adult nerve cords, the male and female adult central nervous system, and the female larval central nervous system.
