THE BRAIN OF QUADRUPEDS AND 



of the brain of the Kangaroo (fig. 68), together with 

 those of the Hare and the Squirrel (figs. 76, 82). In 

 these animals they leave the ' olfactory lobes ' more or 

 less uncovered in front, and sometimes the * corpora 

 quadrigemina ' in the same condition behind. But in 

 Kuminants, Solipedes and Carnivores (figs. 94, 72, 87) the 

 Cerebral Lobes increase in size, so as not only to cover 

 the before-named bodies in front and 

 behind, but also in part to overlap the 

 Cerebellum. 



In the Seal, the Porpoise and the 

 Dolphin (figs. 77, 101), the Cerebral 

 Hemispheres undergo a still more 

 marked increase in size. In these ani- 

 mals, also, as well as in Quadrumana 

 and Man, we no longer find a distinct 

 ^ pyriform process/ recognizable as a 

 part of each ' temporal lobe ' at its

the lowest portions of the Tempoi-al 

 Lobes more or less separated from the remainder by a 

 superficial depression. The continuity existing botweon 

 the Olfactory Peduncles and these parts of the brain is 

 particularly well marked in the Red Coatimondi, the 

 Agouti, the Porcupine and thc Water Kat, as ma}^ be seen 

 from the figures given by Tiedomann. This connection 

 is also indicated by our figs. 69, 73, 82, 93 and 9-1. 



These *i^yriform processes' arc hollowed l)y spurs of 

 tlic lateral ventricles. In the animals in which they are 

 well marked, the Olfactory Peduncles and Lobes are like-
