Abstract
Olfactory phenomena occurred most frequently, usually in the form of hallucinations in the seizures studied. The author indicates that the uncus seems to be the cortical center for smell. Any gustatory phenomena were limited to undifferentiated hallucinations of taste. The evidence here seems to indicate that smell and taste are discrete sensations which possess separate cortical centers. Signs of vegetative discharge frequently are associated with these seizures.Keywords
