Equine Hindbrain — Lateral View

The cerebellum is seen from a lateral view. The red pic is in the primary fissure (the first fissure to develop embryologically); it divides the cerebellum into cranial and caudal lobes. The green pic indicates the flocculus of the cerebellar hemisphere. The middle cerebellar peduncle is composed of transverse pontine fibers entering the cerebellum. Notice the choroid plexus between the cerebellum and medulla oblongata. Click here for another view.
