Comparative neurological studies of the evolutionary development of
struc tures within the central nervous system of vertebrates have
depended to a large extent upon morphological rather than
functional criteria. Classical comparative anatomical studies,
which have attempted to demonstrate homologies between parts of the
brain in representatives of different vertebrate classes may be
grouped under three general headings: 1. comparison of the
embryological development of brain structures; 2. comparison in
adult forms of the topographical relations of neuron groupings and
fiber tracts, and of the morphology of cell types ( cyto
architectonics); and 3. analysis and comparison of fiber
connections between particular cell groupings or regions. Of these
three, the third encompasses func tional relationships most
directly, but even in well-defined fiber tracts the direction of
conduction often remains indefinite, and the extent and activity of
more diffuse systems is poorly known. In recent years a nurober of
investigations applying electrophysiological and degeneration
methods to submammalian forms have been reported. Those most
pertinent to the present studies include the papers of . ARMSTRONG
et al. (1953), KRUGERand associates (e. g. HERIC and KRUGER, 1966;
KRUGERand BERKOWITZ, 1960; PowELL and KRUG ER, 1960}, GusEL'NIKov
and SUPIN (1964) and KARA MYAN and BELEKJIOVA (1964) on various
reptiles, and of PowELL and CowAN (1961), KARTEN and REVZIN (1966)
and REVZIN and KARTEN (1967) on the pigeon.
