Case pg90, fig5. Soma notes PHA-L injections. In all 3 cases examined, the efferent projections displayed the same basic pattern. Two bundles originate from the APc and course ipsilaterally in the descending and ascending directions, each being made of a dorsal and a ventral bunch. Terminal notes dorsal bunch of the descending bundle: emerges medially from the APc and gives terminals to the posterior (except case PP4) and olivary pretectal nuclei.

Case pg86, fig2. Soma notes some positive neurons also appeared in the ... posterior pretectal nucleus, .... Terminal notes HRP/WGA-HRP injs, In cases HP25 & HP26 the uptake area was larger and spread beyond the limits of the APc, reaching the dorsal border of the pars reticulata and the posterior thalamic nucleus. Case HP26 illustrateS the overall afferent input to the APc..
