Hindbrain ( Huxley, 1871 ) : Synonym for macrodissected adult human rhombicbrain (His, 1893b); p. 58. Used thus recently by for example Carpenter (1976, p. 58), Nauta & Feirtag (1986, p. 38), Williams et al. (1989, p. 949), Nieuwenhuys et al. (2008, p. 1).

Metencephalon ( Huxley, 1871 ) : Synonym for epencephalon (Sharpey et al., 1867) and thus hindbrain (Baer, 1837); p. 60. Wilder (1899, p. 573) regarded the shifting of afterbrain (Baer, 1837) and thus metencephalon (Sharpey et al., 1867) from the last position to the penultimate position, and replacing metencephalon (Sharpey et al., 1867) with myelencephalon (Huxley, 1871)-which had previously referred to the cerebrospinal axis (Meckel, 1817) as a whole: myelencephalon (Owen, 1868)-as "constituting a violation of scientific ethics that merits the severest reprobation"! The situation is perfectly illustrated by comparing Gehuchten (1893, Figs. 32, 33) with Gehuchen (1906, Fig. 14)-before and after His (1895, Fig. 20 and p. 162).

Myelencephalon ( Huxley, 1871 ) : Synonym for medulla (Winslow, 1733), pp. 59-60. Also see metencephalon (Huxley, 1871).
