area 14c
Acronym: 14c
The term area 14c refers to one of two subdivisions of area 14 in the straight gyrus of the human frontal lobe. Defined on the basis of multiple stains, it is a narrow area located on the lower margin of the medial surface of the frontal lobe. On the medial surface it is bounded caudally by area 32pl and dorsally by area 10m. On the ventral surface it is bounded caudally by area 13a, and laterally by area 13b. On both surfaces it is bounded rostrally by the other subdivision, area 14r. For the relations of this segmentation and terminology to others, see Ongur-2003.
     Its equivalent in the macaque is area 14c (macaque). Unlike most prefrontal cortex, which is uniquely primate and granular, it may have an equivalent in the agranular cortex of the rat ( Wallis-2012 ). See orbital areas (rodent).
