Macaque retinae were immunostained with monoclonal antibodies directed against the protein synaptotagmin‐2 (Syt2). Syt2 was localized in a population of small‐field amacrine cells, whose cell bodies formed a regular mosaic within the inner nuclear layer, indicating they represent a single amacrine cell type. The labeled amacrine cells had a bistratified appearance with a dense dendritic plexus in the OFF‐layer and only a few lobular processes extending into the ON‐layer of the inner plexiform layer, similar to A8 amacrine cells described in cat and human retina. Syt2‐labeled cells were immunoreactive for glycine but lacked immunoreactivity for γ‐aminobutyric acid (GABA), suggesting they use glycine as their neurotransmitter. The density of these cells increases from ∼200/mm2in peripheral retina to ∼1,400/mm2in central retina. Their bipolar cell input was studied by immunolabeling experiments using various bipolar cell markers combined with CtBP2, a marker of presynaptic ribbons. Our data show that Syt2‐labeled amacrine cells receive input from both OFF and ON cone bipolar cells, as well as from rod bipolar cells. The OFF input is dominated by the diffuse bipolar cell DB1 (44%) and the OFF midget bipolar cell (38%). Here we describe a population of bistratified small‐field amacrine cells closely resembling A8 amacrine cells and their cone‐dominated bipolar cell input. J. Comp.
