505 Superior colliculusMesencephalic reticular nucleus moderateHRP/WGA
Case pg154, fig2. Soma notes A large centrally-located (WGA-HRP) inj with a central zone that extended across all collicular lvls. Slight invasion of intermed blue/white zone of ?PPT, NOT & dorlat PAG. Same main features in 5 other large & some similarities with small injs. Terminal notes Six major areas of termination label were observed within the ipsilateral projection: The area medial to the brachium of the inferior colliculus contained moderate to dense label (& FoP).

923 Superior colliculusMesencephalic reticular nucleus lightHRP/WGA
Case pg162, fig5,6. Soma notes Injection site --WGA-HRP- centred on the lateral part of the intermediate white layer. Intermediate blue-white zone extended across all collicular layers and encroached slighlty onto underlying tegmentum. Terminal notes Fibres from the predodorsal bundle can be seen entering areas of weak terminal label in the mesencephalic reticular formation lunderlying the sup coll. contra..
