Chartings of the terminal fields from each cortical functional region, illustrating the collective diffuse projections superimposed on the focal terminal fields at four chosen AP levels: (a and b) rostral striatum (AP 26); (c–e) n

Yellow, areas 9 and 46; orange, area 24b; white, area 8A-FEF; green, SEF, PMdr and 24c. In (a) and (d), orange is transparent to better illustrate the convergence between focal projections from area 24b with those from areas 9 and 46; in (d)– (e), yellow is transparent to better illustrate the convergence between focal projections from areas 9 and 46 with those from areas 8A-FEF, SEF, PMdr and 24c (the convergence area appears in green); in (c), (f) and (g), white is transparent. Note that diffuse projections from each cortical region distribute to a larger striatal area, extending the territory covered by the focal projections. Scale bar, 5 mm
