Taxonomic definition
Taxonomic definition A superior temporal gyrus is a gyrus of temporal lobe [gyrus lobi temporalis] which lies longitudinally in superiormost position on the lateral surface of the temporal lobe [lobus temporalis ] and is continuous posteriorly with the supramarginal gyrus [gyrus supramarginalis lobi parietalis ].
Notes
The Gyrus temporalis superior (Superior temporal gyrus; BA22) is not a homogeneous cortical area; it contains various cytoarchitectonically and functionally distinct cortical areas. Its Pars anterior (Anterior part or Belt area) forms the Secondary auditory cortex (BA42 or A2; see Morosan P, Rademacher J, Schleicher A, et al. 2001 Human primary auditory cortex: Cytoarchitecture, subdivisions and mapping into a spatial reference system. Neuroimage 13:684-701; Zilles and Amunts 2012). Its Pars posterior (Posterior part or Wernicke's area) is a loosely defined region which comprises the Posterior part of BA22 but also parts of the Inferior parietal lobule.
