Abstract
The Reichardt detector model for fly motion vision has been around for more than 50 years, but a cellular implementation of the model has not yet been discovered. Detailed reconstruction of serial electron-microscopy sections has now revealed a circuit that might well provide the cellular basis for directional selectivity in motion vision.
