Comparative neuron morphology dataset of thermosensory projection neurons (TPNs) from 2-photon microscopy data of dextran dye-filled neurons from Drosophila melanogaster, D. mojavensis, D. persimilis, and D. mettleri brains. In this project, we labelled the TPNs in the brain that relay heat information from the periphery (antennae) to the central brain (lateral horn and calyx of the mushroom...
