Using standard extracellular techniques, the response properties of neurons in the vestibulocerebellum of the pigeon to movement of a wholefield visual stimulus were determined. Complex spike activity of Purkinje cells was modulated in a direction-selective manner by the stimulus and 94% of cells we
The spatial location of the excitatory regions in the receptive field of cells in the pigeon's optic tectum was analyzed with light and dark edges moving at a constant velocity. The tectal cells were classified into two main groups: 1-cells showing spatially overlapping light and dark excitatory reg
