Abstract

The cortico-cortical connections of area 7b (or PF) in the parietal lobe of the monkey have been studied with the method of axoplasmic transport of horseradish peroxidase or with the method of axonal terminal degeneration. Area 7b is reciprocally and precisely connected with area 5, the second somatic sensory area (SII), area 23 of the cingulate cortex, the retroinsular area (Ri), the granular insular area (Ig), and with the cortex in the walls of the superior temporal sulcus.
