Suction lesions were placed in the optic tecta of 36 blind cave fish. Three main bundles of tectal efferents were observed. A large, caudally directed fascicle distributes to the ipsilateral torus semicircularis, nucleus isthmi, and lateral tegmental areas of the mesencephalon and pons via the ipsilateral tectobulbar tract. Contralaterally, this fascicle descends to pontine levels as the contralateral tectobulbar tract. A second, rostrally directed bundle exits from the tectum at two levels. A small fascicle leaves from the caudal tectum and ascends rostrally as the commissura transversa. This bundle then joins with more rostrally exiting fibers and the combined fascicles collect in the area of the medial optic tract. They remain in this position until the level of the postoptic commissure where they decussate. Subsequently, this bundle moves caudally and enters the contralateral tectum at its most rostral extreme. The third bundle of tectofugal efferents leaves the tectum medially, at the level of the lesion, and enters the tectal commissure, through which it is distributed to the ipsilateral torus longitudinalis and contralateral optic tectum.
