Study was made of the dimensions of the nerves to the receptor organs in the anterior branch of the bullfrog vestibular nerve. The number of fibers and their diameters and trajectories in the nerve and Scarpa's ganglion were studied. A correlation was made between the anatomical and physiological properties of neurons identified with intracellular injections of horseradish peroxidase. The data suggest a specific pattern of innervation of the organs, organization of fibers and cells in the vestibular nerve, and significant correlation between the anatomical and physiological properties of individual neurons. A comparison was made between the information obtained from the bullfrog and that from other animals, which suggests a similarity between species and supports the hypothesis of a differential physiological role of the neurons in each vestibular organ according to anatomical characteristics.
