Summary
Units responding to stretch of single extraocular muscles were found in the bulbar and cervical portion of the descending trigeminal nucleus of the lamb. The electrolysis of these bulbar sites provoked degeneration of nervous fibres which could be followed till the first cervical segment of the spinal cord.
