1015 Anterior pretectal nucleusLateral dorsal nucleus of thalamus lightHRP
Case pg191-2, fig2. Soma notes Retrogradely labeled neuron somata in all major divisions of the pretectal complex, q.v. fig2: intense labeling in PA, PM, and PP & moderate labeling of cells in TO & OL. Terminal notes Relatively large injections of HRP in LD.

1016 Anterior pretectal nucleusLateral dorsal nucleus of thalamus lightHRP
Case pg194, fig5. Soma notes Heaviest retrograde labeling occured in the ipsilateral pretectal complex, especially the pretectal nuclei that receive direct retical projections. i.e: OL, PP & OT. Labeled cells were also found in PA and PM. Terminal notes In fig5, a small HRP injection was placed in the dorsal part of LD just rostral to the anterior pole of the lateral geniculate body. This injection did not involve the ventral medial sector of LD or the anterior nuclei.

1017 Anterior pretectal nucleusLateral dorsal nucleus of thalamus moderateHRP
Case pg195, fig6. Soma notes Pretectal labeling in this case was found only in PA, PP & PM.. Terminal notes In fig6, a small injection of HRP was placed in the ventral medial part of LD just lateral to the central dorsal and central lateral nuclei. The injection avoided the intralaminar and anterior nuclei.

1018 Anterior pretectal nucleusLateral dorsal nucleus of thalamus moderateHRP
Case pg193, fig3. Soma notes retrogradely labeled cells were found prominently in the pretectal complex, including TO, PP, PA, especially in its pars compacta, OL and PM.. Terminal notes Fig 3: a relatively large injection of LD. The injection was centred in LD, and did not spread to adjacent anterior or central lateral nuclei, very minor spread to ventral and lateral posterior thalamic nuclei. Inj involved dor.lat. and ven.med. LD.
