Text-Fig. 11. Transverse section through the posterior thalamic region of a human embryo (6 cm.)

Showing the relation of the cerebral membranes to the great cerebral vein and neural tube at the junction of the lateral plate with the dorsal lamina, and the extreme thinness of the membrane (lower part of interhemispheric septum) which joins the sheath of the great cerebral vein to the lower margin of the falx cerebri.


The thin lower part of the interhemispheric septum disappears (text-fig. 11, S.), while the upper and thicker part persists as the definitive falx cerebri, the inferior sagittal sinus (text-fig. 11, I .S.S.) being developed in its lower border. The septum in the earlier stages of development is much thicker than at the stage described and is formed by a median condensation of the loose mesenchyme which occupies the space between the developing hemispheres. It is not formed by the union of the two layers of a fold, and the same remark applies to the formation of the tentorium and falx cerebelli.
