Abstract
Regeneration of olfactory c ells (bipolar neurons) has been revealed in the normal olfacotry epithelium of the adult bat. Some of the interstitial cells detectable between the perikarya of the olfactory cells and the basal cell layer of the epithelium are referred to as the precursors of the olfactory bipolar neurons. It is further suggested that other interstitial cells may probably participate in the regeneration of supporting cells of the olfactory epithelium.
