the neocortex (neopallium) isevolutionay recent. it constitues the remaining 90% of the cerebral cortex and is made up of six lamina. name them.
I. Molecular Layer containing tips of apical dendrites of pyramidal cells as well as the most
distal branches of corticothalamic axons of the intralaminar nucleus of the thalamus.
II. Outer Granular Layer containing small pyramidal cells which establish intracortical
connections.
III. Outer Pyramidal Layer containing medium-sized pyramidal cells which give rise to
association and commissural fibres, and stellate cells.
IV. Inner Granular Layer containing stellate cells, especially in the primary somatosensory,
primary visual and primary auditory cortices, and which receive thalamocortical
afferents
V. Inner Pyramidal Layer containing large pyramidal cells projecting to extracortical targets
including the corpus striatum, thalamus, brainstem and spinal cord
VI. Fusiform Layer containing modified pyramidal cells projecting to the thalamus†
distal branches of corticothalamic axons of the intralaminar nucleus of the thalamus.
