Schematic drawing of the brain in coronal section. Superficially, the superior, middle and inferior temporal gyri (a, b, c respectively) comprise the temporal lobe. The sylvian fissure (arrow) demarcates the border with the frontal lobe. The primary auditory cortex is located in the transverse temporal gyrus (of Heschl) (d). The parahippocampal gyrus and hippocampus (asterisk) lie in the medial aspect of the temporal lobe. The hippocampus runs superior and lateral to the parahippocampal gyrus from rostral to caudal
