Collator argument
The hierarchy was constructed based on the information provided in the atlas (pages 281-287), and on the latest version of the hierarchical tree provided by the first author of the atlas. The parahippocampal transition area appears in two different hierarchies. In one it appears as a substructure of the transition areas (TA), and in the second as a substructure of the cortical nucleus of the amygdala (Co).
