title: Isthmic afferent neurons identified by the retrograde HRP method in a teleost, Navodon modestus.
abstract: Isthmic afferent neurons were investigated by the retrograde horseradish peroxidase (HRP) method in a teleost, Navodon modestus. Following HRP injections into the nucleus isthmi, large pyriform neurons are labeled in the ipsilateral optic tectum. Very large and multipolar neurons are also labeled in the ipsilateral nucleus pretectalis. No labeled neurons were found in other areas.
