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 cortico-amygdaloid 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).
