However, the M-cell population is much too sparse to account for the limits to veridical motion perception anywhere in the visual field. This result agrees with the anatomical data of Dacey and Brace showing that dendiritic fields of M-cells overlap too extensively to allow for much aliasing, motion reversal, or other effects of undersampling. Instead, a population of cells with closer spacing and less overlap of receptive fields must be involved, which implicates the P-cells in motion perception.
