The adult optic lobe
(Golgi preparations)

• camera lucida composites

  • 

    Some columnar neurons in the optic lobe. Please note the retinotopic projections as well as the stratified organization of axonal terminals and dendritic arbors, which enables selective connectivity of different columnar cell types.

  • lamina-medulla connections (Poster)

  • composites showing more (other) cell types will be entered

• Single cell types

  • T5-cells

  • List will be continued
