The growth of the hemispheres takesplace progressively from before backwards, so that they come to cover in succes-sion the thalami, corpora quadrigemina and cerebellum, which all originally stoodin a series behind them, as they do permanently iu the lowest vertebrates. Bythe end of the thii-d month the hemispheres have extended so far backwards asto cover the thalami; at the fourth they reach the corpora quadrigemina ; at thesixth they cover those bodies and great part of the cerebellum, beyond whichthey project still further ^backwards by the end of the seventh month. The floor especially of the hemispheres thickens considerably, and the corpusstriatum increasing greatly in magnitude, at the same time projects upwards intothe lateral ventricles so as to give these cavities an arched foi-m and mark outtheir ante
