ABSTRACT
In teleosts, the fasciculus medialis tractus optici departs the optic tract and follows an aberrant path towards the midbrain tectum. To determine the retinal origin of the fascicle, horseradish peroxidase was injected into localized lesions of either the optic nerve or the retina. The fasciculus medialis axons of adult goldfish derive selectively from ganglion cells residing in the dorsotemporal portion of the central retina. The fasciculus medialis appears to be an integral part of the chronotopic ordering of fibers in the optic tract.
