inferior limiting sulcus (ilms)

The term inferior limiting sulcus refers to one of three parts of the limiting sulcus in the human ( Ture-1999 ). Identified by dissection, it separates the insula from the superior temporal gyrus of the temporal lobe. The other parts are the superior limiting sulcus and the anterior limiting sulcus. In the macaque it is one of just two parts; the other is the superior limiting sulcus. The limiting sulcus is not present in rodents.

Also known as: inferior marginal sulcus of the insula, inferior limiting sulcus, ventral limb of the circular sulcus, sulcus inferior insulae (Reilii), inferior periinsular sulcus, posterior marginal sulcus, inferior peri-insular sulcus
