From the BSTfu injection site, large numbers of PHAL-labeled axons also extend caudally into the caudoventral corner of the anterolateral area of the BST and the adjacent substantia innominata. Numerous fibers with branching and terminal boutons appear to provide dense inputs to these areas (Fig. 6H,I). Collator note: Atlas level 20, Swanson 1998. Possible fibers of passage. Figure 6H from the paper.
