Abstract
Receptive fields of neurons in the anterior dorsolateral thalamus (DLA) of the chick were plotted and their response properties analyzed. The average size was 18o×13o but there were some wide-field units. DLA cells were classified as detectors of 1. general movement (uniform-field), 22%; 2. general movement (centre-periphery), 22%; 3. moving dark objects, 29%; 4. direction, 8%; and 5. illumination, 19%.This publication has 11 references indexed in Scilit:
