The Primate Globus Pallidus and its Feline and Avian Homologues: A Golgi and Electron Microscopic Study

  • Chapter
Evolution of the Forebrain

Abstract

The following description of the monkey globus pallidus is based on Golgi impregnations of the macaque monkey (Macaca mulatto) and on electron micrographs of the squirrel (Saimiri sciureus) and macaque monkeys. It will be seen that the Golgi preparations provide an invaluable guide. Without them interpretation of the electron micrographs would have been difficult, if not impossible.
