Paleocorteza
Sign in to saveAlso known as paleopallium
In anatomy of animals, the paleocortex, or paleopallium, is a region within the telencephalon in the vertebrate brain. This type of cortical tissue consists of three cortical laminae (layers of neuronal cell bodies). In comparison, the neocortex has six layers and the archicortex has three or four layers. Because the number of laminae that compose a type of cortical tissue seems to be directly proportional to both the information-processing capabilities of that tissue and its phylogenetic age, paleocortex is thought to be an intermediate between the archicortex (or archipallium) and the neocor

La paleocorteza o corteza del bulbo olfatorio es la parte de la corteza cerebral que corresponde a las áreas de terminación de las vías olfatorias. En esta capa se encuentra el cerebro olfatorio. Junto con la arquicorteza forma la allocorteza, estructura que conforma el 10% del volumen total de la corteza cerebral humana.
