    Co ma VI Fig. 34.—The preparation illustrated in Fig. 32 seen obliquely from below. The most anterior part of the superior wall of the inferior cornu has been separated by the cut shown in text, Fig. D. In front, on the section surface, one sees the fasc. uncinatus cut through. Fig. 35.—The dissected half of the same brain has been separated from the intact half exactly in the mid-plane. View from within and above. The upper half of the cerebellum has been torn away and the bundles of the pons (t) streaming into this part have been cut off (cf. p. 21). The lamina quadrigemina and the thalamus proper have been lifted away from the tegmentum and, after cutting through the lateral lemniscus, both corp. geniculata and the part of the ansa peduncularis coming from the thalamus, have been simply broken loose from the internal capsule. The brachium conjunctivum, its decussation, and the red nucleus surrounded by its fibrous capsule have been prepared out of the surrounding softer tissue. Notice the spiral turn of the brachium conjunctivum, the layer of fine fibres (*) lying between the red nucleus and the internal capsule, through which goes the ansa lenticularis, and the bundles of the ansa peduncularis which come from the capsule of the red nucleus.
