simian sulcus
The term
simian sulcus refers to the confluence of the
intraparietal sulcus, the
lunate sulcus of the human and the
parieto-occipital sulcus on the
dorsal surface of the
cerebral cortex of the
macaque (
Kappers-1960 ). It is an externally visible opening to the
intraparietal sulcus, which some authors refer to as the 'simian fossa'. It is not identified as a separate structure in
brain atlases of the
human, and equivalent structures are not found in the smooth
cerebral cortex of the
rat or
mouse (
NeuroNames ).
Also known as: simian sulcus, Sulcus simiarum, Sulcus parieto-occipitalis lateralis
