- W2051661655 abstract "Motor localisation in the Gibbon has not been hitherto determined experimentally, probably owing to the difficulty of obtaining a suitable animal. It appeared to be desirable, therefore, to see whether the habits and mode of life of this animal could be correlated with an increased development of the motor cortex. One of us (F. W. M.) had some years ago, by a comparative study of the convolutional pattern of the brains of Lemurs and Apes, made the following deduction: “The remarkable use this animal makes of its arms and hands can be correlated with a remarkable expansion of the cortex in the precentral region, as shown by the development of a broad gyrus extending from the middle of the precentral region to form the second frontal convolution. Now if we turn to the Ape’s brain (Maeacus), and see what the effect of this development would be, we observe that it would push forwards and downwards that portion of the cortex which on stimulation gives rise to movement of the head and eyes, particularly that which gives rise to eye movements, etc.” Figures were shown to indicate that the sulcus arcuatus would be pushed down to join the sulcus rectus. The following experiments by stimulation, correlated with a complete histological examination of the cortex in front of the central sulcus, have confirmed this deduction. The animal used for the experiments was a male and black in colour; it was remarkably agile; when standing or running on the ground it maintained almost an erect posture, using its long arms to balance itself very much as a man would walk on a tight rope with a- balancing-pole. It was kept for some days before the experiment in the animal room of the Physiological Laboratory, Liverpool, and it was frequently heard to utter vocal sounds of very varying pitch and quality. Thus it could imitate the shrill high-pitched whistles of the guinea-pig and the relatively low-pitched bark of the dog. A short account of the larynx of this animal will be made the subject of a future publication." @default.
