area 26 (26)
The term
area 26 refers to the most
caudal portion of
area 29 in
retrosplenial cortex of the
human. It is a very narrow band located in the
isthmus of the cingulate gyrus as it curves around the
splenium of the corpus callosum. It is bounded internally by the splenium and externally by
area v23a of the
ventral posterior cingulate cortex. It consists of a single
external granular layer (IV), which is continuous rostrally with layer III/IV of
area 29l. It has no equivalent in the
macaque (
Vogt-2012 ) or the
rat (
Paxinos-2009b ) or
mouse (
Hof-2000 ).
