79: 1157–1166, 1998. The purpose of this study was to characterize the inhibitory …

1. Directional selectivity of crayfish sustaining fibers was examined with drifting sine wave
gratings and with intracellular and extracellular recordings. Directionality was measured for …

1. Intracellular recordings, sine wave gratings, and paired flashes were used to characterize
the directional selectivity (DS) of the peripheral neurons of the crayfish visual pathway. DS …

1. Polarization sensitivity (PS) was examined in nonspiking interneurons, tangential cells, of
the crayfish optic lobe. Stationary PS profiles were measured with pulses of illumination at …

It is proposed that polarization sensitivity at the most peripheral stages of the crayfish visual
system (lamina ganglionaris and medulla externa) is used to enhance contrast and thus may …

Inhibitory influences in receptive fields (RFs) of the fish retinal direction-selective ganglion
cells (DS GCs) were investigated. Responses of the fast retinal DS GCs were recorded …

In goldfish, the retinal pathways involved in motion coding have been demonstrated to have
an L-cone dominated action spectrum (S. Schaerer, C. Neumeyer, Motion detection in …

Motion detector interneurons were examined to determine their responsiveness to the
motion of polarized light images (ie images segmented by spatial variations in e-vector …

The amplitude-coding pyramidal neurons of the first-order nucleus in weakly electric
gymnotiform fish (Eigenmannia), the electrosensory lateral line lobe (ELL), exhibit 2 major …

1. Receptive fields of catfish (Ictalurus punctatus) ganglion cells were studied using a
pseudorandom-width binary grating that was moved through the receptive field in a number …
