“…The olivocerebellar projection is highly preserved between mammals and birds in terms of the morphological properties of its climbing fiber arbor (Ramón y Cajal, ; Freedman et al, ), single axonal morphology (Sasamura et al, ), common molecular marker expression (FoxP2, Fujita and Sugihara, ), and topographic projection originating from different subnuclei of the inferior olive to different longitudinally band‐shaped areas in the cerebellar cortex (Arends and Voogd, ; Pakan and Wylie, ). Based on the topography of the olivocerebellar and corticonuclear projections, the avian cerebellar cortex has been subdivided into five or six longitudinal zones in pigeon (A, B, C, E, and F‐zones, Arends and Voogd, ).…”
