In the fovea of the primate retina, there are different image and color coding pathways characterized by their synaptic convergence and divergence onto midget, parasol, and bistratified ganglion cells. The midget pathway specializes in processing fine images and red or green color. The parasol pathway sensibly works for coarse images. The bistratified cell encodes the blue/yellow color opponency. All pathways are arranged in the narrow space to form the highly integrated foveal center.
