The Edinger-Westphal nucleus in goldfish was identified by retrograde labeling from the ciliary ganglion. In the same animals a few neurons near this nucleus (perinuclear Edinger-Westphal neurons) were labeled by a different retrograde tracer injected into the cerebellum. No double-labeled cells were found. Similar results were obtained in kelp bass, except that in this species no cerebellar-projecting perinuclear neurons were observed. Cerebellar-projecting Edinger-Westphal neurons have previously been described in some mammals, but not in other vertebrates. Therefore the homology of cerebellar-projecting cells of the Edinger-Westphal region in mammals and teleost fishes is doubtful.
通过睫状神经节逆行标记法鉴定了金鱼中的动眼神经副核。在同一批动物中，通过向小脑注射不同的逆行示踪剂，标记了该核附近的一些神经元（核周动眼神经副核神经元）。未发现双标记细胞。在条纹鲈中也得到了类似的结果，只是在该物种中未观察到投射至小脑的核周神经元。此前在一些哺乳动物中描述过投射至小脑的动眼神经副核神经元，但在其他脊椎动物中未见报道。因此，哺乳动物和硬骨鱼类动眼神经副核区域投射至小脑的细胞是否同源尚不确定。
