Abstract:
:The numbers and sizes of nerve fibres to the dorsal neck muscles, splenius, complexus and biventer cervicis have been examined in the cat. The total number of fibres is unusually high as is the content of sensory fibres (estimated as the loss of fibres after ganglionectomy). The fibre spectra of these sensory nerves has an unusually large number of fibres in the group II and III range (3-7 mum) and differs markedly in this way from other muscle nerves. The motor fibres contain a high proportion (64-99%) in the gamma fibre size range. Large motor fibres are absent in the nerves to biventer cervicis (a slow muscle). The ratio of unmyelinated to myelinated fibres in neck muscle nerves is similar to that in hind legs at about 2.5:1.
