The anatomist's vade mecum : a system of human anatomy . the corpus striatum at either side, and spreads out in the sub-stance of the hemispheres; the middle or soft commissure consists ofgrey matter, which is continuous mth the grey Kuing of the ventricle,it connects the adjacent sides of the thalami optici; the -posteriorcommissure, smaller than the anterior, is a fiattened white cord,connecting the two thalami optici posteriorly. The space between the anterior and middle commissme is called theforamen commune anterius, and is that to which Monro has given hisname (foramen of Monro). It is the medium of communicationbetween the lateral and third ventricles, and transmits superiorly thechoroid plexus and venae corporum striatorum. The foramen com-mune anterius is also termed, iter ad infundilulum, from leading 416 THIED AND FOURTH VENTKICLES. downwards to tlie fimnel-sliaped cavity of tlie infundibulum. Thecrura of the fornix are embedded in the lateral walls of the foramencommune, and are concealed from view in this situation by the layer. * The third and fourth ventricles. 1. The fifth ventricle situated betweenthe layers of the septum lucidum. 2, 2. The corpora striata. 3, 3. Thethalami optici; the numbers are placed upon the part termed , 4. The pulvinar. 5, 5. The tenia semicircularis. 6, 6. The crura of thefornix, cut across. 7. The middle commissure of the third ventricle. 8. Theposterior commissure of the third ventricle ; the space between the thalamioptici (3,3), in which the commissiu-es (7, 8) are placed is the third The pineal gland. 10, 10.
