It is defined on the basis of internal structure and function ( Matelli-2004 ). The more caudal of two parts of the SMA proper, it is activated with the performance of a simple movement, such as a finger tap, in response to an unambiguous stimulus, such as a metronome. The other part of SMA proper is rostral SMA proper.
