It has been shown that the niolecular architecture of the nerve axon sheath is qualitatively similar in all fiber types, whether vertebrate or invertebrate and whether highly myclinated or relatively unmyelinated. The essential feature of similarity is the presence in the sheath of lipide molecules
Since the early work of Valentin (1861) much information about the ultrastructure of nerve has been obtained by means of polarization optics (for reviews, see Schmidt, '24, '34). Most of this work has concerned itself with the structure of the myelin sheath. The optical properties of the myelin she
