The morphometric study of the amygdala in the rabbit
open access
Abstract
These morphometric data from CA in the rabbit, when compared with the similar data for the common shrew and guinea pig (see our previous papers), lead to the conclusion that the amygdalae in all three species are very similar with respect to the distribution of neurons in relation to density and size and that, when volumetric measurements are taken into account, CA in the rabbit is much more similar to that of the guinea pig than that of the common shrew.
