Abstract

A group of 7 baboon [Papio papio and P. anubis] brains was examined for the presence of an asymmetry of the frontal poles. Of the 7 brains, 6 exhibited an asymmetry in which the right frontal pole was longer than the left by a mean of 1.4 mm. The 7th brain had frontal poles of equal length.
