We reexamined here comparatively early patterns of forebrain and hindbrain neurogenesis in a lizard (Lacerta gallotia galloti), a bird (the chick), and a mammal (the rat), as demonstrated by activation of acetylcholinesterase (AChE). This is an early marker of postmitotic neurons...

Out of one of these models, presented as the “updated tetrapartite pallium model,” a modified definition of the earlier lateral pallium sector (LPall) concept emerged, characterizing it in mammals as an unitary claustro-insular transitional (mesocortical) complex intercalated...
