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:

    The discovery of the North Pole is one of those realities which could not be avoided. It is the wages which human perseverance pays itself when it thinks that something is taking too long. The world needed a discoverer of the North Pole, and in all areas of social activity, merit was less important here than opportunity.
    Karl Kraus (1874–1936)

    The human face is a weak guarantee; yet it deserves some consideration. And if I had to whip the wicked, I would do so more severely to those who belied and betrayed the promises that nature had implanted on their brows; I would punish malice more harshly when it was hidden under a kindly appearance.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    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)
