Over 30 nuclei have been identified in the reticular formation of rats, but only a small number of distinct reticular nuclei have been recognized in frogs. We used immunohistochemistry, retrograde tracing, and cell morphology to identify nuclei within the brainstem of Rana pipiens. FluoroGold was in

## Abstract The very distal part of the chicken basilar papilla was investigated by light and electron (scanning and transmission) microscopy. The rostral tip of the basilar papilla has a lenticular area with atypical sensory hair cells which are more similar to vestibular than to auditory cells. T
