Popis:	This paper describes the spinal cord distribution of primary afferent fibers from forelimb and hindlimb in the North American opossum. Fibers entering the cord distribute to all ipsilateral laminae (I-IX) within their segment of entry, often have a small crossed projection to the contralateral dorsal horn, and extend as well into adjacent segments of lumboseacral and cervical enlargements. Segmentally derived afferents have a longitudinal extent of up to 10 segments into laminae VI and VII, of 5-6 segments into dorsal horn laminae I-IV, and are most restricted in their projection to maina IX (2-3 segments). The total extent and the detailed pattern of distribution of these fibers is very similar to that of previously studied placental mammals.
