## Abstract Regional Ca^2+^ influx into neurons plays an essential role for fast signal processing, yet it is little understood. We have investigated intracellular Ca^2+^ transients induced by a single action potential (AP) in Retzius neurons __in situ__ of isolated ganglia of the leech __Hirudo me
