The Morphology of the Occipital Region of the Cerebral Hemi- sphere ill Man and the Apes. By G. Elliot Smith, Cairo. With 9 Figures. Since my preliminary note on the so-called "Afifenspalte" in the Human (Egyptian) Brain ^) was written I have made a minute exam- ination of the superficial form and the internal structure of the occi- pital region in more than 400 human and an almost equally large series of Simian cerebral hemispheres. The results of this investigation have been embodied in a memoir which is now being published in the "Records of the Egyptian Government School of Medicine (Vol. II)." Some of the chief ^con- clusions are summarised in this note: but the reader must consult the complete work for a fuller presentment of the facts and the arguments which have led me to adopt the views stated here.
