These lobes are somewhat ovoid in form, their larger ends directed caudad and slightly laterad; their smaller anterior ends lie close to the anterior wall of the head. Each lobe is somewhat compressed at right angles to the external sur- face. At their anterior ends the lobes are closely apposed to each other and are here united by a thin bridge of nerve fibres, the supraoesophageal commissure (Figs. 43 and 44, SupCom). Prob- ably some fibres from the second brain division, the deutocere- brum, also enter into this commissure. Each half of the protocerebrum of insects is typically divided into three lobes, which in many cases, as in the Dermaptera and Orthoptera (Fig. 38) are marked off from one another by thick- enings of the ectoderm forming the wall of the head Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Nelson, James Allen.
