Abstract
1. The myelinated fibre spectrum of the plantar nerve of reptile consists of a unimodal distribution corresponding approximately to the delta elevation in mammalian nerve and contains a variety of receptor categories similar to those of mammals except for the obvious absence of structures related to hairs.This publication has 28 references indexed in Scilit:
