Fig. 277.—Main fissures and lobes o£ the lateral surface of the left cerebral hemisphere. 388 THE NERVE SYSTEM 3. The occipital fissure {sulcus parietooccipitalis) is seen about 5cm. above the occipital pole and is only partly represented upon thelateral surface. It indicates the separation between the occipitaland parietal lobes. Upon the medial surface the following interlobar fissures are seen: 1. The central fissure which extends for about i cm. upon thissurface. 2. The occipital fissure, or fossa, has its main portion on this sur-face. It extends downward and forward for 3 to cm. and meetsthe following fissure. It is usually quite deep and separates themedial surface of the parietal and occipital lobes completely fromeach other. 3. The calcarine fissure {sulcus calcarinus) arises upon the medialsurface about i cm. above the base of the cerebrum just internal tothe occipital pole. It passes upward and inward from to 4 joins the occipital fissure; these continue f
