We have stained a new population of bipolar cells in rabbit retina by using antibodies against the carbohydrate epitope, CD15. The CD15-positive bipolar cells comprise 6-8% of the total cone bipolar cells in peripheral retina. Their axonal and dendritic arbors are similar in size and range from 15 t

## Abstract Mammalian retinal circuits are broadly divided into rod and cone pathways, responsible for dark‐ and light‐adapted vision, respectively. The classic rod pathway employs a single type of rod bipolar cell, which synapses with AII amacrine cells. AII amacrine cells then pass the signal to

## Abstract The synaptic organizations of γ‐aminobutyric acid–immunoreactive (GABA‐IR, GABAergic) and non–GABA‐IR (non‐IR, glutamatergic) bipolar cells in salamander retina were compared by postembedding immunoelectron microscopy. A total of 238 presynaptic bipolar cell synapses were studied; 61 we
