Definition (free text, please give PubMed ID in format PMID:XXXXXX)
An intratelencephalic-projecting glutamatergic neuron that is located in the boundary between L2/3 and L5 of the primary motor cortex. These cells have diverse morphologies with some pyramidal and some stellate cells.

Not sure if I should include the following information:

Likely corresponded to the quasi-L4 neurons described previously in the motor cortex. PMID:25525751.

The paper quoted also writes: (1) input of primary thalamocortical (TC) axons from VL and PO; (2) output to excitatory neurons in other layers, especially L2/3; (3) largely unidirectional L4→2/3 projections (i.e., little input in return from L2/3), and often, although not as a strict rule, (4) a paucity of long-range corticocortical inputs and outputs.
