Studies on light-sensitive units in the deep mesencephalon of blinded frogs.

abstract：:The ability to judge the separation between two target lines deteriorates as the base separation increases. Several lines of evidence suggest that this may be due to larger base separations being processed by mechanisms that cover larger areas and which have a greater associated positional uncertainty as a consequence...
