Neuronal organization of the fields Pmm, Pml2, Pe and epm of the periamygdaloid cortex of the cat brain has been studied by means of Golgi and Nissl methods. The field Pmm essentially differs from other fields of this cortex by primitiveness of its cytoarchitectonic an neuronal organization (two layers uniform by the composition of their neurons are distinguished, the structure of the latter is relatively primitive). In the medial part of this field long axonal rarely branching short dendritic, and in the lateral part--poorly differentiating pyramidal and spindle-like cells predominate. The field Pmm can be considered as a transitional formation between the subcortex (the medial nucleus of the amygdaloid body) and other fields of the periamygdaloid cortex. The fields Pml2, Pe and epm are built more complexly: the cells are organized in 4 layers, more complexly differentiated by their form and size than in the field Pmm and correspondingly more various (long axonal densely branching cells are observed: pyramidal and spindle-like--of the cortical type and bushy--of the subcortical type, as well as long axonal rarely branching reticular cells). The short axonal cells in the fields Pml2, Pe and epm are rather variable in their form, size and direction of axons; in the field Pmm they are less numerous. The field Pmm and the complex of the fields Pml2, Pe and epm are perhaps different in their function, this is evident from different projection of their neurons. Axons of the cells in the field Pmm get into less differentiated and the most ancient medial nucleus of the amygdaloid body and into the ancient system of connections of the latter--terminal strip, and neurons of the fields Pml2, Pe and epm are projected into the basolateral part of the amygdaloid body and into the external capsule--phylogenetically younger structures. Besides, poverty of the axonal collateralies in the long axonal neurons and a small amount and uniformity of the forms of the short axonal cells in the field Pmm and contrary, rich collateralies and variety of short axonal cells in the composition of other fields demonstrate more complex internal integrative function, performing in that composition.
