Area 18 of V II of the prestriate cortex of the squirrel monkey was examined at both the light and electron microscopic (EM) levels for cytochrome oxidase (C.O.) activity. At the 17/18 border, the intense C.O. staining of lamina 4 abruptly ended and a new pattern continued for approximately 6 mm into the adjacent prestriate cortex. Here, periodic puffs of high C.O. activity appeared in laminae (lam.) 2 and 3, with the highest activity in lower 3 (3B) extending slightly into upper 4. There was a hint of a columnar pattern in that lam. 4 and especially 5 below the puffs were slightly more reactive than adjacent areas. A thin band of activity could also be seen in upper 5 (5A) and another one between 5 and 6. Tangential sections revealed that the puffs were arranged in alternating wide and narrow rows that radiated orthogonally from the 17/18 border. The puffs in the wider rows tended to be larger (700–1,100 μm in diameter) than those in the narrow rows (400–890 μm in diameter). The center‐to‐center spacing between the puffs was approximately 1,100 μm.
