The lobus olfactorius impar lies in the anterior vertical wall, which forms the boundary of the primary fore-brain in front, known as the lamina tcrminalis.

It can thus hardly be doubted that the median rudi- mentary olfactory lobe of the embryos of the higher Vertebrates is homologous with the lobus olfactorius of Amphioxus ( 51), and, like the latter, represents the remains of the neuropcre.
