Theanimal made a few mistakes in the selection of the yellow breads,but these were judged to be due to inaccuracies in movement morethan inaccuracies in perception, for in these tests both pieces of bread(they were presented simultaneously) were taken at one time.

Testsof the extent of the visual field failed to show contraction or otherdefects. Subsequent examinations did not reveal further deviationsfrom the normal, except that the animal became stupid and refusedto eat, nine days after the operation. At this time he was killed. Atthe autopsy and subsequent microscopical examinations it was foundthat the lateral aspects of both occipital lobes were almost com-pletely destroyed. The le
