Abstract
The morphology of ganglion cells in the cat's retina has been examined in Golgi-impregnated whole mounts. The α-, β, and γ-cell groups described by Boycott and Wässle ('74) were observed. Also observed were may cells with wide dendritic fields typical of γ-cells, and medium-sized somas more usually associated with β-cells. It is suggested that these cells belong to the γ-cells group, adding to the variety already described by Boycott and Wässle among γ-cells.
