“…The work of Abbie (, ), Filimonoff (, ), Gastaut and Lammers (), Sanides (, ), Stephan (), Mesulam and Mufson (, ), Pandya and Yeterian (), Morán, Mufson, and Mesulam (), Altman and Bayer (), Gloor (), and Nieuwenhuys () emphasized that mammals, in general, show a transitional cortical band which forms a ring‐shaped mesocortex domain (Filimonoff, ) intercalated between the allocortex ring and the neocortex/isocortex. Both Filimonoff () and Sanides () further divided the mesocortical transition into two steps with progressively increasing histologic complexity, named respectively periallocortex and proisocortex .…”
