title: Properties of ganglion cells in the visual streak of the cat's retina.
abstract: The properties of ganglion cells in the visual streak of the cat's retina have been investigated. Evidence is presented that the streak is formed principally, but not entirely, by a concentration of small-bodied ganglion cells with the receptive field properties and slow-conducting axons typical of W-cells.
