In all mammalian retinae studied to date, starburst cholinergic amacrine cells are a consistently occurring cell type. Here, we show that the cone-dominated retina of the tree shrew also has starburst cells with the characteristic radially symmetric branching pattern known from other species. Dendri

We examined the tracer coupling pattern of more than 15 morphological types of amacrine and ganglion cells in the rabbit retina. Individual cells were injected intracellularly with the biotinylated tracer Neurobiotin, which was then allowed to diffuse across gap junctions to label neighboring neuron
