Evolution of the hippocampus in reptiles and birds
GF Striedter - Journal of Comparative Neurology, 2016 - Wiley Online Library
Although the hippocampus is structurally quite different among reptiles, birds, and mammals,
its function in spatial memory is said to be highly conserved. This is surprising, given that …
