There are at least two su< lilongitudinal bundles in each lateral half of the brain. The ventral secondaryafferent path of the trigeminal nerve consists for the most part of crossed liber-and is located in the ventral part of the reticular formation, close to the spinothalamic tract in the medulla, and dorsal to the medial lemniscus in the pons Mesencephalon Pons-.

It is composed in large part of long fibers whichreach the thalamus. The dorsal secondary afferent path of the trigeminal nerveconsists chiefly of uncrossed fibers and lies not far from the floor of the fourthventricle and the central gray matter of the cerebral aqueduct. It consist- inconsiderable part of short fibers (Cajal, 1911; Wallenberg, 1905; Economo,1911; Dejerine, 19
