Retinotopic organization of striate and extrastriate visual cortex in the golden hamster (Mesocricetus auratus).

The visual topography within striate and lateral extrastriate visual cortices was studied in adult hamsters. The cortical areas 17 and 18a in the left hemisphere were electrophysiologically mapped upon stimulation of the right eye, correlating receptive field positions in the visual field with cortical recording sites. Reference lesions were placed at selected cortical sites. Like in rats and other mammals, the lateral extrastriate cortex contained multiple representations of the visual field. Rostral area 18a contained the rostrolateral maps, with medial and lateral divisions. More caudally and sharing a common border with V1, maps in lateromedial, posterolateral and posterior areas were found. More laterally and forming a "third tier" of visual maps, anterolateral, laterolateral-anterior, laterolateral and laterolateral-posterior areas were found. There was also an indication of a possible pararhinal map. The plan so defined is virtually identical to that of rats. The results may be useful to understand a basic mammalian plan in the organization of the visual cortex.
