The relationships between the ventrobasal (VB) complex of the amygdala and the other encephalic zones have been investigated. Horseradish peroxidase injections were made into the amygdaloid VB complex in seven adult rats, processed according to the Nauta method (2). HRP labelled somata were observed ipsi- and contralaterally into the lateral habenulae (HL), superior collicoli (CS), reticular formations (RF), dorsal and medial raphe nuclei (DR and MR), only contralaterally into bulbar dorsal vagal nucleus (NDV) Fig. 1).
