temporal cortex (rodent)
Acronym:
The term temporal cortex (rodent) refers to the portion of cerebral cortex in the rat ( Swanson-2004; Paxinos-2009b ) and the mouse ( Franklin-2008 ) that corresponds to the temporal lobe of the primate. It consists of the piriform area, the amygdala, the hippocampal formation, the perirhinal area, the ectorhinal area, the entorhinal area, the auditory cortex, the temporal association areas, the parasubiculum, and the postsubiculum. Some authors define areas of transition between the primary areas, for example, the piriform amygdalar area ( Franklin-2008 ) and the postpiriform transition area ( Swanson-2004 ).
