Labeled ganglion cells were studied in whole-mount retinas of Old World monkeys after electrophoretic injections of horseradish peroxidase into physiologically characterized sites. A number of different morphological classes have been identified, each of which has a distinctive pattern of central projection. Since different functional classes of primate retinal ganglion cells also have distinctive patterns of central projection, correspondences between functional and morphological cell types have been inferred. There prove to be parallels between morphological types of cat monkey ganglion cells.
在将辣根过氧化物酶电泳注入生理特征明确的部位后，对旧世界猴的视网膜整体标本中的标记神经节细胞进行了研究。已识别出许多不同的形态学类别，每一类都有独特的中枢投射模式。由于灵长类视网膜神经节细胞的不同功能类别也有独特的中枢投射模式，因此推断出功能和形态细胞类型之间存在对应关系。事实证明，猫猴神经节细胞的形态学类型之间存在相似之处。
