متن کاملNeuron numbers in sensory cortices of five delphinids compared to a physeterid, the pygmy sperm whale.
With its large mass and enormous gyrification, the neocortex of whales and dolphins has always been a challenge to neurobiologists. Here we analyse the relationship between neuron number per cortical unit in three different sensory areas and brain mass in six different toothed whale species, five delphinids and one physeterid. Cortex samples, including primary cortical areas of the auditory, vi...
