Three meanings of "stratum zonale".
[edit]Can anyone confirm that there are three definitions (at least) of "stratum zonale"? I've found these.
- Stratum zonale of the thalamus. This "covers the dorsal surface and the external and internal medullary laminae".
- Stratum zonale of the superior colliculus. This is the topmost of 7 layers, "a thin layer consisting of small myelinated axons together with marginal and horizontal cells".
- Stratum zonale of the cerebral cortex. This is described in a 1911 encyclopedia: https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/1911_Encyclop%C3%A6dia_Britannica/Brain. See the section on "Histology of Cerebral Cortex". It is a synonym for Layer 1, the Molecular Layer.
The third case is not such a big problem, although this synonym probably should be mentioned in the article on the cerebral cortex. But there's just a chance that the first and second "stratum zonale" definitions could be the same or closely related. My reference books don't cover this. Maybe someone else could look this up.
