Abstract
The relationship among neuronal type, position, and time course of development of identified neurons was examined in the zebrafish (Brachydanio rerio). The cells studied, the reticulospinal neurons Mauthner, MiM1, and MiV1, are located within the same small region in the hindbrain, differ stereotypically in their positions within this region and also in their axonal projections. All of the cell types were generated and had initiated axonal outgrowth by the second day after fertilization. The time that these events occurred was specific for each cell type, with axonal outgrowth occurring about 10 hr after the neuronal birthday. Furthermore, the time of the events varied systematically according to the dorsoventral location of the neuron within the set.
