Abstract
<jats:p>The feline auditory cortex is understood to consist of 13 distinct subregions with unique anatomical and functional properties. Differential patterns of SMI-32 immunoreactivity are commonly used to identify the borders between these subregions; however, the detailed description of areal differences that is commonly cited did not include descriptions of the patterns observed along the posterior ectosylvian gyrus. Thus, the current manuscript aims to provide a more complete data set that can used to delineate the dorsal, intermediate, and ventral divisions of the posterior ectosylvian gyrus (auditory cortical regions dPE, iPE, and vPE, respectively) based on SMI-32 reactivity using the same methods and measures. Taken together, the current data and those published previously allow for a standardized approach to identifying all 13 auditory cortical subregions in this essential model of auditory cortical structure and function.</jats:p>
