YOUNG1 has described two types of synapses in the stellate ganglion of the squid, both of which are of great physiological interest. The first is a set of uniquely large synapses formed by the contacts between branches of a giant preganglionic fibre and the giant axons in the stellar nerves. The other consists of a large number of small contacts which the preganglionic fibres make with small nerve fibres which then fuse to form the giant axons. It now seems quite certain2-4 that the transmission of impulses across both types of synapses is effected by the release of a transmitter substance.
