Retino-petal neurons in the diencephalon of juvenile Lobotes surinamensis (teleostei).
Diencephalic retino-petal neurons in juvenile specimens of the teleost Lobotes surinamensis are not segregated into subpopulations that form discrete nuclei. A continuous band of such cells extends from the rostral to the caudal diencephalon. It includes some locations previously described as retino-petal nuclei in other teleosts. The vast majority of diencephalic retino-petal cells only projects to the contralateral eye in Lobotes.
