"Using molecular markers, tract tracing, and quantitative comparisons of cellular 12 distribution patterns, we report a detailed neuroanatomical atlas of the adult Danionella dracula (“Dracula fish”) telencephalon."

![A multipanel figure showing a cartoon of a songbird head, a cartoon diagram of a songbird brain, and three black and white images showing the cellular structure of the brain region we focused on, PrV. The following is the legend that accompanies the figure. (a) Shows in different colours the areas of the innervation in the head, beak and tongue by the three branches of the trigeminal nerve (V1-V3) and the hypoglossal nerve (XII) in a songbird and the respective areas of innervation in the principal sensory nucleus of the trigeminal nerve (PrV; based on Faunes & Wild [26]). (b–d) Microphotographs of Nissl-stained coronal sections through the principal sensory in nucleus of the trigeminal nerve (PrV) in three species of songbirds: (b) the pine grosbeak (Pinicola enucleator, Fringillidae); (c) the field sparrow (Spizella pusilla, Passerellidae); (d) the Carolina chickadee (Poecile carolinensis, Parulidae).](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:gfvjxniv5ylppk263f44p3zs/bafkreighnpetcjup2wmdlgcpcxvdkjhk3hyamr3vukgl2zmq54jxohlfbu)
