Support information about direct projections from Retina to Superior colliculus:

Sending structure	Receiving structure	Strength of projection	Type of connection	Technique	General description	Associated reference
Retina	Superior colliculus	exists	not known	HRP	Case pg463, fig3. Soma notes small area of temporal R, very sparse, ipsilateral projection to SC smaller than ips projection to LG. Terminal notes 3 rats with (HRP) injections aimed at the superior colliculus of one hemisphere, only small region of ipislateral SC contains label. --No mention of contralateral R-SC connection--.	Cowey A, Perry VH., 1979
Retina	Superior colliculus	light	not known	HRP	Case pg30, fig9C. Soma notes 1195 cells labelled in 0.46 mm2 patch. Terminal notes HRP inj.	Dreher B, Sefton AJ, Ni SY, Nisbett G., 1985
Retina	Superior colliculus	strong	not known	Cholera toxin conjugated to HRP	Case pg352. Soma notes 36 female Sprague-Dawley rats weighing 200-350g. 10 microliters of CT-HRP(.20%-.40%) were injected into one eye ?behind the lens into the vitreous chamber of the eye. pressure injection over 1 min. Terminal notes The label in the dorsal geniculate, pretectal area, and superior colliculus is so intense that we were unable to resolve whether these fibres come from the retino-geniculate path, the retino-tectal path or both..	Levine JD, Weiss ML, Rosenwasser AM, Miselis RR., 1991
Retina	Superior colliculus	exists	not known	Lesion studies	Case pg1235-6, fig4. Soma notes retinal lesions produced with a laser opthalmoscape. Terminal notes gave degeneration of variable extent within the superior colliculus..	Reese BE, Cowey A., 1983

Support information about direct projections from Superior colliculus to Subiculum ventral part:

Sending structure	Receiving structure	Strength of projection	Type of connection	Technique	General description	Collator	Associated reference
Superior colliculus	Subiculum ventral part	exists	not known	fluorescent tracers	Case pg600, table1. Soma notes Long projections to the superior colliculus arose from neurons in both {5,6} of Rga. Terminal notes retrograde labeling experiments (FB/FG).		van Groen T, Wyss JM., 1990

Support information about direct projections from Subiculum ventral part to Lateral hypothalamic area:

Sending structure	Receiving structure	Strength of projection	Type of connection	Technique	General description	Collator	Associated reference
Subiculum ventral part	Lateral hypothalamic area	light/moderate	not known	biotinylated dextran amine (BDA)	Collator note: labeling of the LHA, just above the optic tract. See Fig. 3A, Swanson Atlas Levels 26-27.		Kishi T., Tsumori T., Yokota S. & Yasui Y. , 2006
