Anterograde transport experiments reveal two novel findings regarding the distribution of descending tectofugal axons. First, such axons project to the supraspinal nucleus of the caudal medulla; this nucleus is known to project to the upper cervical spinal cord gray. Second, some tectospinal axons ramify within Rexed's lamina IX of the first 5 cervical spinal cord segments. This zone contains motoneurons which innervate neck musculature. Retrograde data reveal that tectospinal neurons occur in clusters within the intermediate and deep gray layers. A close relationship between the clusters of tectospinal neurons and a modular type of connectional organization of the intermediate and deep gray layers is suggested.
