Topological analysis of the brain stem of the lungfish Lepidosiren paradoxa

The ventricular sulcal pattern and the cellular structure of the brain stem of the lungfish Lepidosiren paradoxa have been studied in transversely cut Nissl and Bodian stained sections. Five longitudinal sulci, the sulcus medianus inferior, the sulcus intermedius ventralis, the sulcus limitans, the sulcus intermedius dorsalis and the sulcus medianus superior could be distinguished. In the isthmus region a number of obliquely oriented sulci is present. One of these, designated here as sulcus d, continues as a longitudinal groove into the mesencephalon. In Lepidosiren most neuronal perikarya are contained within a diffuse periventricular gray. However, 24 separate cell masses could be delineated. Six of these are primary efferent nuclei, six are primary afferent centers, six nuclei are considered to be components of the reticular formation and the remaining six may be interpreted as “relay” nuclei.
