A-D left: coronal sections of bush baby pulvinar in two animals at comparable anterior-posterior levels. The four sections are stained for myelin, cytochrome oxidase (CO), acetyl cholinesterase (AChE), and calbindin (CB), respectively. The myelin section showed more shrinkage during staining and was digitally stretched to match with the other sections. A-D right: line drawings of subdivision borders visible in the sections on the left. Solid lines are clear borders between subdivisions, while dotted lines show borders not obvious with that staining. The arrowheads in A show the location of the myelin circle. D, dorsal; L, lateral; V, ventral; M, medial. Subdivisions: PL, lateral pulvinar; PM, medial pulvinar; PIm, medial inferior pulvinar; PIc, central inferior pulvinar; PIcl, lateral part of PIc; PIcm, medial part of PIc. LGN, lateral geniculate nucleus.
