Regeneration (Regen) was assessed by retrograde transport of HRP in 27 animals as in Table 1. Because the cells are paired in each animal, a total of 54 individual members of each cell type were counted. Cell nomenclature is that of Rovainen (1967) as extended bySwain et al. (1993). Mth, Mauthner cell; mth′, auxilliary Mauthner cell.
