Plantar surface of foot showing rudimentary second toe and opposable hallux. surface show that this specialization of the neopallium has already begun to make definite expansions toward the occipital pole of the hemisphere. On the orbital surface of the brain the two orbital concavities are fairly well marked. This surface has a general obliquity outward, which increases the prominence of this concavity and permits the orbital plane to pass over into the frontal surface without sharp angulation in the region of transition. The interorbital keels are well marked. The olfactory bulb is large and detachable for a certain distance, although the olfactory tract is short and not detachable. The latter shows its greatest development in its lateral roots.
