title: Receptive-field structure of direction-selective ganglion cells projecting to the goldfish tectum.
abstract: The receptive field of a direction-selective unit of any type consists of an excitatory center 3 degrees -5 degrees in size, a near inhibitory surround and a far surround upon which illumination exerts an influence for both spontaneous activity and specific cell response.
