RESUMO
Electro-oculographic recordings were performed in 10 opossums. The optokinetic reflex was elicited by projecting a random dot stimulus on a cylindrical screen moving horizontally from left to right or right to left at various constant speeds. Binocular stimulation yelded the same response as the temporal to nasal monocular condition. The nasal to temporal monocular response was always less than to the opposite direction 50% at 3 degrees/s and 15% at 18 degress/s. These results are discussed in a comparative context
