secondary olfactory areas
Acronym:
The term secondary olfactory areas refers to a group of substructures of the endbrain defined on the basis of connectivity. Obsolete since the olfactory system was redefined in the 1980s ( Price-1990 ). Authors differed in their definitions depending to large extent on whether they regarded the olfactory bulb or the structures that receive axonal fibers from the olfactory bulb as the olfactory cortex ( Anthoney-1994 ). Some applied the name 'secondary olfactory cortical area' to the olfactory entorhinal cortex ( Carpenter-1983 ).
