TL;DR
Extrageniculate neurons sending fibers to the visual cortex were found in the lateral and inferior pulvinar nuclei, paracentral thalamic nucleus, claustrum, basal nucleus of Meynert, lateral part of the basal amygdaloid nucleus, lateral hypothalamus, locus coeruleus, and dorsomedial and midline regions of the pontine tegmentum.
Abstract
Extrageniculate projections to the visual cortex were examined in the macaque monkeys by the horseradish peroxidase (HRP) method. Extrageniculate neurons sending fibers to the visual cortex were found in the lateral and inferior pulvinar nuclei, paracentral thalamic nucleus, claustrum, basal nucleus of Meynert, lateral part of the basal amygdaloid nucleus, lateral hypothalamus, locus coeruleus, and dorsomedial and midline regions of the pontine tegmentum.

Journal of Histochemistry & CytochemistryTetramethyl benzidine for horseradish peroxidase neurohistochemistry: a non-carcinogenic blue reaction product with superior sensitivity for visualizing neural afferents and efferents.

The sensitivity of this new method in demonstrating retrograde transport is markedly superior to that of the previously described benzidine dihydrochloride method and, as a consequence, many efferent connections of the injection site are also visualized.

Projections are described from the basolateral, lateral and anterior cortical nuclei of the amygdaloid complex, and from the prepiriform cortex, to several discrete areas of the cerebral cortex in the rat and cat and to the mediodorsasl thalamic nucleus in the rats.

It is concluded that Stoffels' principle of lamellation holds and, that one pulvinar subdivision projects to several cortical areas, that adjacent Pulvinar subdivisions have overlapping projections to these cortical areas and their layers and that the pulvinars also projects to the same cortical area as DLG but to different layers.

The findings reveal that a far greater proportion of the temporal neocortex than previously described contributes afferents to the amygdala, further strengthening the view that the amygdala occupies a key anatomical position linking the neocortex with diencephalic structures.

In the rhesus monkey, retrogradely labeled neurons, containing HRP reaction granules in the cell body and proximal parts of the dendrites, were present in the thalamus as well as in the substantia innominata and the hypothalamus and the latter areas will be referred to as the basal forebrain areas.

The results of this experiment suggest that both Retino-geniculate and retino-superior colliculus-pulvinar types of visual information may converge within the striate cortex.

It is concluded that there are 3 visuotopically organized inputs from the lateral thalamus to primary visual cortex and that each of these inputs have different layers of termination.

It is revealed that the dorsal claustrum of the cat projects to almost entire regions of the bilateral neocortex and that distribution of labeled neurons in the bilateral claustrums has topographical correspondence, rostro-caudal as well as dorso-ventral, with regard to the sites of injections in the neocortex.
