CORTICO-CORTICAL CONNECTIONS IN THE MONKEY WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO AREA 6

Abstract

By the method of physiologic neuronography, heretofore undescribed cortico-cortical connections in the macaque brain have been demonstrated. Afferent cortical connections have been described to area 6a from areas 46 and 5 + 7 of the lateral surface of the cerebral hemisphere, areas 41 and 42 of the temporal lobe, and areas 7, 23b, and 24 of the medial surface of the hemisphere. Other homolateral interareal connections have been described, including afferents to the suppressor areas.
