Brodmann area 35, together with Brodmann area 36, comprise the
perirhinal cortex
The perirhinal cortex is a cortical region in the medial temporal lobe that is made up of Brodmann areas 35 and 36. It receives highly processed sensory information from all sensory regions, and is generally accepted to be an important region ...

cytoarchitecturally defined
temporal regions of the
cerebral cortex
The cerebral cortex, also known as the cerebral mantle, is the outer layer of neural tissue of the cerebrum of the brain in humans and other mammals. The cerebral cortex mostly consists of the six-layered neocortex, with just 10% consisting o ...

Human Brodmann area 35
This area is known as perirhinal area 35. It is a subdivision of the
cytoarchitecturally defined
hippocampal region of the
cerebral cortex
The cerebral cortex, also known as the cerebral mantle, is the outer layer of neural tissue of the cerebrum of the brain in humans and other mammals. The cerebral cortex mostly consists of the six-layered neocortex, with just 10% consisting o ...
. In the human it is located along the
rhinal sulcus
In the human brain, the entorhinal cortex appears as a longitudinal elevation anterior to the parahippocampal gyrus, with a corresponding internal furrow, the external rhinal sulcus (or rhinal fissure), separating it from the inferiolateral surface ...
. Cytoarchitectually it is bounded medially by the
entorhinal area 28 and laterally by the
ectorhinal area 36 (H).
