fasciolar gyrus refers to a tiny bundle of
gray matter and
white matter identified by dissection and histology in the
human (

macaque (
Martin-2000 ). Located in the
archicortex of the
limbic lobe it adheres to, and curves around the
splenium of the corpus callosum. It is connected below to the
hippocampal complex and above to the
supracallosal gyrus. It is composed of

white matter longitudinal striae The
