title: [Various principles of the organization of preterminal and terminal branches of afferent conductors in neuropil of the snail dorsal ganglia].
abstract: Character of ramifications in the preterminal and terminal axonal parts in the neuropil of the dorsal ganglia have been studied in 16 edible snails (Halix pomatia). The nervous tissue is impregnated with silver nitrate after Golgifast method. Serial sections are made in two projections: horizontal and vertical. The analysis of peculiarities of the spatial distribution of the afferent fibers (AF) demonstrates their several forms that are united into the following types: dominant, probable and transitional. Comparison of the edible snail AF with those in the higher vertebrata makes it possible to conclude that the character of ramification of their preterminal and terminal parts and principle of organizational connections of the AF with the postsynaptical structures are principally similar.
