“…The only other bat claustrum report focused on the interconnections of auditory cortex and showed connectivity of the latter with frontal, anterior cingulate, retrosplenial and perirhinal cortices, the claustrum, and subcortical targets including the amygdala, auditory thalamus, pons, pretectum, superior and inferior colliculi, and central gray (Fitzpatrick et al, ). As described in the introduction, place, head‐direction, and grid cell recordings during navigational behavior have shown that individual place cells in bats are active in confined 3D volumes and nearly all neurons encode all three axes with similar resolution (Yartsev and Ulanovsky, ), whereas cells in rodents are multiplanar, but not fully volumetric (Stackman et al, ; Hayman et al, , ; Taube and Shinder, ; Taube et al, ; Jeffery et al, ). We speculate that a major basis for the multiplanar cell streams of the bat claustrum compared with rodent is the need for bats to function in three dimensions, and make decisions based on multisensory input in flight at higher speed with little margin for error (see e.g., Bar et al, ; Marshall et al, ).…”
