的地图visuotopically离散的视觉大脑皮层区域的猫和猕猴进行了比较，并确定了知识的差距，限制了这种比较。基于皮质外套中的相对位置、视野表示的内部组织以及跨皮质和皮质下连接的标准，猫区域17、18和19可以分别等同于猕猴区域V1、V2和V3。使用这些相同的标准，猫外侧上裂沟内侧岸的视觉区域（区域PMLS）可以等同于猕猴区域V5。神经元感受野特性的数据和视觉行为的领域作出的贡献的等价支持。虽然大多数其他视觉区域的数据很少，但有足够的数据暂时将猫区域20 a和20 b共同等同于猕猴区域TF和TH，并将猫区域21 a和21 b比作猕猴区域V4。目前尚不清楚的是，猫体内是否有一个区域相当于猕猴的TE区。如果有的话，它可能位于20和21区之间的后外侧裂上沟和后外侧裂回的多感觉皮层的岸边。从猕猴V4区和TE区的先前研究中获得的知识可用于制定猫区21和未知的后上裂沟的具体额外调查。此外，先前对猫区20进行的调查可用于设计猕猴区TF和TH的具体探索。
The maps of visuotopically discrete visual cerebral cortical areas in the cat and the macaque monkey are compared and gaps in knowledge are identified that limit such comparisons. Cat areas 17, 18, and 19 can be equated with macaque areas V1, V2, and V3, respectively, based on criteria of relative position in the cortical mantle, internal organization of visual field representations, and trans- and subcortical connections. Using these same criteria, a visual area on the medial bank of the lateral suprasylvian sulcus (area PMLS) in the cat can be equated with macaque area V5. The equivalences are supported by data on neuronal receptive field properties and the contributions the areas make to visual behavior. Although the data are scanty for most other visual areas, there are enough data tentatively to equate collectively cat areas 20a and 20b with macaque areas TF and TH and to liken cat areas 21a and 21b with macaque area V4. What is not clear is if there is a region in cat that is equivalent to area TE in the macaque monkey. If there is, it likely lies on the banks of the posterior suprasylvian sulcus between areas 20 and 21 and the polysensory cortex of the posterior ectosylvian gyrus. Knowledge gained from prior research on macaque areas V4 and TE can be used to formulate specific additional investigations of cat area 21 and the uncharted posterior suprasylvian sulcus. In addition, prior investigations carried out on cat area 20 can be used to devise specific explorations of macaque areas TF and TH.
