The unshaded partis that exposed by opening the skull. (Dalton.) The fundamental phenomena observed in all these cases may be thusepitomized: 1. Excitation of the same spot on the cortex is always followed by the samemovement in the same animal. 2. The area of excitability for any given MOTOR FUNCTION OF THE CEREBRAL CORTEX 579 movement is extremely small, and admits of very accurate definition. 3. Indifferent animals
