[Structural organization of an identified giant neuron of Helix lucorum]

Method of intracellular staining with cobalt was used for detailed study of processes branching of the giant cell in the left parietal ganglion of the snail Helix lucorum L. Dendritic and axonal branches are described and quantitatively characterized. Terminals of axonal collaterals of this neurone innervating presumed neurosecretory bodies are described in the tissue surrounding the ganglion.
