Physostigmine induced .theta. rhythm and unit activity were recorded from the dorsal hippocampus in immobilized locally anesthetized rats. Correlations between .theta. and rhythmical unit activity and their modifications by hippocampal afferent stimulation were studied. Electrical stimulation of afferents reset .theta. and rhythmical unit activity in phase. Poststimulus .theta. displayed a variable frequency which depended on the structure stimulated. Lower frequencies were evoked by septal, higher frequencies by entorhinal and reticular formation stimulations. When .theta. rhythms were absent either by spontaneous disappearance or as a consequence of lesions in the fornix superior or septum, the reset was not observed. The reset of the .theta. rhythms and unit activity by afferent stimulation suggested that the hippocampus may participate in timing mechanisms.
