Single unit and lesion studies have implicated the oculomotor vermis of the cerebellum in the control of targeting saccades to jumping visual targets. However, saccades can be made in a variety of other target situations where they can occur with different reaction times (express or delayed saccades) in response to a remembered target location (memory-guided saccades) or between several targets that are always visible (scanning saccades). Here we ask whether the oculomotor vermis contributes to generating all these types of saccades by examining the simple spike discharge of its Purkinje cells. Twenty-six of 32 P-cells (81%) exhibited qualitatively similar phasic firing patterns for targeting, express, scanning, delayed, and memory-guided saccades. The remaining six exhibited a different pattern for just scanning saccades. Although a sensitive test of discharge patterns revealed significant differences for some pairs of saccade types in ∼29% of P-cells, there was no cell-to-cell consistency as to which pairs were associated with different patterns. Also, a less sensitive comparison identified substantially fewer cells (∼15%) with different patterns. Thus the lack of any consistent difference in firing for different saccade types leads us to conclude that the oculomotor vermis is not likely to contribute differently to targeting, express, scanning, delayed, or memory-guided saccades.
