Electron microscopy study of the central retinal fovea in Pied flycatcher: evidence of a mechanism of light energy transmission through the retina

We present unique ultrastructural data on avian retinal cells. Presently and earlier (Zueva et al., 2016) we explored distribution of intermediate filaments (IFs) in retinal cells of the Pied flycatcher (Ficedula hypoleuca, Passeriformes, Aves) in the central foveolar zone. This retinal zone only co...
