(c) The third cranial, or oculomotor nerve (n. oculomotorius), which controls the majority of the eye-muscles, emerges from the ventral surface of the cerebral peduncle. THE rhombencephalon: (a) The cerebellum forms a dorsal arch over the anterior part of the hindbrain and is supported by stout pillars at its sides. The dorsal part of the arch has become very mas- sive, is moulded into several lobes, and has a superficial layer of grey matter, the cerebellar cortex. This is thrown into numerous transverse folds. The subdivisions recog- nized include a median portion, the vermis, a cerebellar hemisphere at each side of this, and a stalked body, the paraflocculus, arising ventrolateral^ beneath each heml- phere. The flocculus is a small fold ventral to the stalk of each para- 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 Bensley, B.
