In the nodulus and ventral uvula of pigeons, there are four parasagittal zones containing Purkinje cells responsive to patterns of optic flow that results from self-translation along a particular axis in three-dimensional space. By using a three-axis system to describe the preferred direction of tra

Previous electrophysiological studies have shown that the pigeon vestibulocerebellum (ventral uvula, nodulus, and flocculus) can be divided into two parasagittal zones based on responses to optic flow stimuli. The medial zone (ventral uvula and nodulus) responds best to optic flow resulting from sel
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
