A New Photosensory Function for Simple Photoreceptors, the Intrinsically Photoresponsive Neurons of the Sea Slug Onchidium

Simple photoreceptors, namely intrinsically light-sensitive neurons without microvilli and/or cilia, have long been known to exist in the central ganglia of crayfish, Aplysia, Onchidium, and Helix. These simple photoreceptors are not only first-order photosensory cells, but also second-order neurons...
