ORGANIZACION TOPOGRAFICA Y AREAS ESPECIALIZADAS EN LA RETINA DE Callopistes palluma: CAPA DE CELULAS GANGLIONARES

In this paper we analyze the topographic distribution and cell body size of neurons (ganglion and displaced amacrine) of layer 8 of the retina in the chilean reptile Callopistes palluma; using whole mount retinaswith nissl stain. Callopistes palluma retina has an area centralis without fovea in whi...
