| Abstract: | Background The mammalian auditory cortex can be subdivided into various fields characterized by neurophysiological and neuroarchitectural
properties and by connections with different nuclei of the thalamus. Besides the primary auditory cortex, echolocating bats
have cortical fields for the processing of temporal and spectral features of the echolocation pulses. This paper reports on
location, neuroarchitecture and basic functional organization of the auditory cortex of the microchiropteran bat Phyllostomus discolor (family: Phyllostomidae). |
