The morphology and synaptic relationships of anterogradely labeled retinal, visual cortical (area 17), and parabigeminal terminals have been analyzed within the superficial gray (stratum griseum superficiale) of Galago crassicaudatus. Our data regarding the retinocollicular projection reveal two populations of terminals based upon size. The population of smaller terminals are found in clusters, while the larger occur in isolation. Both populations of retinocollicular terminals form synapses primarily with dendritic spines, but synapses upon pale vesicle filled (PVF) profiles and dendritic shafts also occur. Corticotectal terminals contain round vesicles and make asymmetrical synapses, primarily onto dendritic spines; few form synapses with PVF profiles. Our findings suggest the possibility that there are two populations of corticotectal terminals based upon differences in size and morphology. Parabigeminotectal profiles contain densely packed round vesicles and make asymmetrical synapses. These terminals, which are exclusively cholinergic in Galago, are presynaptic to dendrites of various sizes. Convergence of retinal and cortical terminals has been observed. This convergence occurs on distinctly separate regions of the postsynaptic membrane. In contrast, convergence of retinal and parabigeminal terminals occurs on the same region of the postsynaptic cell(s).
