Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Proceedings of the Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia, 1878
The interparietal fissure is present in the apes as a distinctly marked typical fissure, but in man, as exemplified by the white race, it is so broken up by bridging convolutions that its exist ence as a distinct fissure was not recognized until 1866, when its typical character was first pointed out by Turner, who gave to it the above name. It has been recognized as an important and typical fissure only by Pansch and Ecker. Bischoff states that it is present in the foetus, and is typical; but that in the adult brain it does not present the characters given to it by Turner.
