The cerebellum in this section is completely separated from the acoustico-lateral areas, and has its typical conformation of strata granulosum and moleculare. But continuous and inferior to the small-celled area we have just described is a narrow area of transverse fibres interspersed with rows of small cells, which we recognise as similar to the central acoustic area we have described in the carps. The remaining portion of the lobe consists of a tissue similar to that of the stratum moleculare with a few^ large cells.
