text: "Introduction: The olfactory system in most mammals is divided into several
subsystems based on the anatomical locations of the neuroreceptor cells involved
and the receptor families that are expressed. In addition to the main olfactory
system and the vomeronasal system, a range of olfactory subsystems converge onto
the transition zone located between the main olfactory bulb (MOB) and the accessory
olfactory bulb (AOB), which has been termed the olfactory limbus (OL). The OL
contains specialized glomeruli that receive noncanonical sensory afferences and
which interact with the MOB and AOB. Little is known regarding the olfactory subsystems
of mammals other than laboratory rodents.\r\nMethods: We have focused on characterizing
the OL in the red fox by performing general and specific histological stainings
on serial sections, using both single and double immunohistochemical and lectin-histochemical
labeling techniques.\r\nResults: As a result, we have been able to determine that
the OL of the red fox (Vulpes vulpes) displays an uncommonly high degree of development
and complexity.\r\nDiscussion: This makes this species a novel mammalian model,
the study of which could improve our understanding of the noncanonical pathways
involved in the processing of chemosensory cues."
