(Fig. 325) Commissures have not been demonstrated in Amphioxus. In the terminal lamina of the telencephalon of cyclostomes are two, a more ventral anterior and a more dorsal pallial. Both connect the olfactory lobes with the hippocampi of the opposite side. Two habenular ganglia in the roof of the diencephalon are connected by the habenular commis- sure. Fibers from the hemispheres and also from the hypothalamus are contained in this commissure. Another commissure in the roof of.
