Table 2. Comparing peri-burst morphology of different cell populations.

Means ± SEM of burst duration, maximum intra-burst firing rate, and latency of maximum firing rate are provided for each category.

	Burst duration	Max Intra-burst FR	Latency of Max FR
NOF cells	46 +/− 2 ms^*	163 +/− 7 spk/s^*	8.7 +/− 1.6 ms ^*
α-range cells	32 +/− 3 ms	205 +/− 9 spk/s	17.6 +/− .7 ms
All other OF cells	53 +/− 3 ms^*	162 +/− 5 spk/s^*	8 +/− 2 ms ^*

The cells with α-range activity had a shorter burst duration, and a longer maximum intra-burst firing rate that occurred later in the burst than other cells (Kruskal-Wallis test, p<0.05, Dunn's post test in comparison with α-range cells, p<0.05).
