Figure 1 Area prostriata in the monkey and human brain. (A) Topographical relationships of V1, V2 and prostriata (P) in non-primate and primate brain displaying the comparative reduction of prostriata in primates. (Adapted from [3].) (B) Location of V1, V2 and prostriata in the monkey (macaque) and human brain. (C) Examples of receptive field (RF) sizes of typical neurons in V1 and prostriata. RF sizes increase with eccentricity in V1, whereas they remain relatively constant and comparatively large in prostriata.
