A combination of anterograde and retrograde anatomical tracer injections made in the dorsal cochlear nucleus and the auditory cortex respectively, revealed terminal boutons which were directly apposed onto the dendrites and cell bodies of neurons in the medial auditory thalamus.

Although a ventral division of this nucleus (MTNv) was not observed in the macaque, the retina projects to a group of cells in the midbrain reticular formation (MRF), which we argue to be homologous to the dorsal division of the MTN (MTNd).

They confirm that the crossed map is displaced relative to the uncrossed maps. The main source of pretectal efferents to the LTN is from the pretectal olivary nucleus (OPN) and isThe manner in which each retina can be mapped onto a single cross section of the optic tract of the cat has been defined by neuroanatomical methods.

The preponderance of GAL-binding in somatosensory as well as in limbic areas suggests a possible involvement of GAL in a variety of brain functions.

The demonstration of a direct connection between LTN and OPN forces to a reconsideration of the functional role of the AOS.

The present anatomical findings permit a division of the MTN of these species into dorsal and ventral components (MTNd, MTNv), in agreement with other investigations.
