Brodmann Area - Brodmann Areas For Human & Non-human Primates

Brodmann Areas For Human & Non-human Primates

  • Areas 3, 1 & 2 - Primary Somatosensory Cortex (frequently referred to as Areas 3, 1, 2 by convention)
  • Area 4 - Primary Motor Cortex
  • Area 5 - Somatosensory Association Cortex
  • Area 6 - Premotor cortex and Supplementary Motor Cortex (Secondary Motor Cortex)(Supplementary motor area)
  • Area 7 - Somatosensory Association Cortex
  • Area 8 - Includes Frontal eye fields
  • Area 9 - Dorsolateral prefrontal cortex
  • Area 10 - Anterior prefrontal cortex (most rostral part of superior and middle frontal gyri)
  • Area 11 - Orbitofrontal area (orbital and rectus gyri, plus part of the rostral part of the superior frontal gyrus)
  • Area 12 - Orbitofrontal area (used to be part of BA11, refers to the area between the superior frontal gyrus and the inferior rostral sulcus)
  • Area 13 and Area 14* - Insular cortex
  • Area 15* - Anterior Temporal Lobe
  • Area 17 - Primary visual cortex (V1)
  • Area 18 - Secondary visual cortex (V2)
  • Area 19 - Associative visual cortex (V3,V4,V5)
  • Area 20 - Inferior temporal gyrus
  • Area 21 - Middle temporal gyrus
  • Area 22 - Superior temporal gyrus, of which the caudal part is usually considered to contain the Wernicke's area
  • Area 23 - Ventral Posterior cingulate cortex
  • Area 24 - Ventral Anterior cingulate cortex.
  • Area 25 - Subgenual cortex (part of the Ventromedial prefrontal cortex)
  • Area 26 - Ectosplenial portion of the retrosplenial region of the cerebral cortex
  • Area 27* - Piriform cortex
  • Area 28 - Posterior Entorhinal Cortex
  • Area 29 - Retrosplenial cingulate cortex
  • Area 30 - Part of cingulate cortex
  • Area 31 - Dorsal Posterior cingulate cortex
  • Area 32 - Dorsal anterior cingulate cortex
  • Area 33 - Part of anterior cingulate cortex
  • Area 34 - Anterior Entorhinal Cortex (on the Parahippocampal gyrus)
  • Area 35 - Perirhinal cortex (on the Parahippocampal gyrus)
  • Area 36 - Parahippocampal cortex (on the Parahippocampal gyrus)
  • Area 37 - Fusiform gyrus
  • Area 38 - Temporopolar area (most rostral part of the superior and middle temporal gyri)
  • Area 39 - Angular gyrus, considered by some to be part of Wernicke's area
  • Area 40 - Supramarginal gyrus considered by some to be part of Wernicke's area
  • Areas 41 & 42 - Primary and Auditory Association Cortex
  • Area 43 - Primary gustatory cortex
  • Area 44 - pars opercularis, part of Broca's area
  • Area 45 - pars triangularis Broca's area
  • Area 46 - Dorsolateral prefrontal cortex
  • Area 47 - Inferior prefontal gyrus
  • Area 48 - Retrosubicular area (a small part of the medial surface of the temporal lobe)
  • Area 49 - Parasubiculum area in a rodent
  • Area 52 - Parainsular area (at the junction of the temporal lobe and the insula)

(*) Area only found in non-human primates.

Some of the original Brodmann areas have been subdivided further, e.g., "23a" and "23b".

Famous quotes containing the words areas, human, non-human:

    In my writing I am acting as a map maker, an explorer of psychic areas ... a cosmonaut of inner space, and I see no point in exploring areas that have already been thoroughly surveyed.
    William Burroughs (b. 1914)

    [Christianity] existed and flourishes, not only without the support of human laws, but in spite of every opposition from them.
    James Madison (1751–1836)

    Almost like a god looking at her terribly out of the everlasting dark, she had felt the eyes of that horse; great glowing, fearsome eyes, arched with a question, and containing a white blade of light like a threat. What was his non-human question, and his uncanny threat? She didn’t know. He was some splendid demon, and she must worship him.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
