  • Title: Mapping of sound direction in the trout lower midbrain.
    Author: Wubbels RJ, Schellart NA, Goossens JH.
    Journal: Neurosci Lett; 1995 Oct 27; 199(3):179-82. PubMed ID: 8577392.
    Abstract:
    In the trout lower midbrain 35% of the auditory neurons are directionally selective (DS). Most of these neurons have a higher directional selectivity than the sensory hair cells. DS units and non-DS units occur in vertical clusters, with the former more dorsally. The direction of preference is topographically mapped. Apparently, auditory space mapping is a common feature in the midbrain of vertebrates.
