Retinal Cell Types Can Be Distinguished By Their Size And
Branching Patterns(Dacey, 1993; Rodieck 1998)

Dacey e-mail from April 22, 2003•Inner and outer parasol cells •Inner and outer midgets•Small bistratified,•Large bistratified, •Inner and outer thornys•Dense thorny
(this is an ON-OFF type that is broadly stratified across the ON-OFF border),•Large sparse monostratified – inner and outer•Giant monostratified (these are the photoreceptive ganglion cells - they stratify at the extreme inner and outer borders of the IPL but are NOT ON and OFF types and at the moment I have lumped them into a single physiological/anatomical grouping).
There are also at least three other groups that we label from the colliculus that I have not seen consistently from the LGN (these probably include the ON-DS and the ON-OFF DS physiological groups).
