Summary of the synaptic targets of type II fibers observed in the present study. Most of the targets are small dendrites, at least some of which emanate from cochlear-nucleus small cells. Some targets are cell bodies of presumed multipolar cells. Occasional targets were large dendrites and presumed bushy cells. On the figure, labeled type II synaptic terminals are shaded in black and unlabeled synaptic terminals are unshaded. The unlabeled terminals are classified by the size and shape of their synaptic vesicles (abbreviations as in Fig. 5). Their potential sources are listed in italics.
