Abstract

Unilaterally ocellate adult moths were produced by cauterization of one of the pair of ocellar primordia in fifth instar larvae. The remaining ocellar nerves and associated interneurons of the adult moths were subjected to cobalt infiltration and Timm's intensification. Two interneurons from the ablated ocellus were observed to grow into the synaptic region of the remaining ocellus and presumably made functional connections with ocellar receptor cell axons.
