title: The medial terminal nucleus of the monkey: evidence for a 'complete' accessory optic system.
abstract: The retinal projection to the medial terminal nucleus of the accessory optic system of the monkey was examined in several primate species which had received intraocular injections of [3H]proline or [3H]fucose. These data show that the medial terminal nuclei of the slow loris, marmoset monkey, and squirrel monkey all receive a sparse input from the contralateral retina.
