The cells are designated as in Fig. 1. Values are means ± SD. The three dendritic fields are labeled A–C following the convention of O’Shea and Williams (1974). Field A receives excitatory inputs (exc); fields B and C are inhibitory (inh), B being closer to A. nsegs is the number of dendritic segments between branch points or tips. lmgda– e, lobula giant movement detector reconstructions.
