Only few observations in primates are available on the corticonuclear projection of the posterior lobe. Haines and Whitworth (1978) and Haines and Patrick (1981) studied the projection of the paramedian lobule and the paraflocculus in the tree shrew Tupaia glis). They concluded that , 3 and a D zone, with a similar topography and corticonuclear projection as in the cat, were present in the paramedian lobule of the tree shrew. The C2 and the D zone continued into the paraflocculus, where the D zone could be subdivided into D, and Dj zones on the basis of its differential projection to the lateral cerebellar nucleus. The organization of the posterior vermis in primates (Haines, 1975a,b) will be dealt with in the Sections on the vestibular cerebellum (6.1.5.) and the olivocerebellar projection (6.3.3.3.). 

The termination of mossy fibers in longitudinal strips was first observed and illustrated for the termination of the spinocerebellar fibers in the rabbit (Voogd, 1967 Van Rossum, 1969). It was also reported for the spinocerebellar projections in Tupaia glis and the ferret (Voogd, 1969), the cat (Voogd, 1969 and the series of papers of Matsushita...

Diagrams of the distribution of degenerated, silver impregnated spinocerebellar and pontocerebellar fibers after lesions of the cervical cord and the pes pontis with the nucleus reticularis tegmenti pontis in sagittal (upper panels), transverse (middle panels) and horizontal sections (lower panels) through the cerebellum of Tupaia glis. Note zonal distribution in the vermis and pars intermedia and complementarity of the two projections to the cortex and to the cerebellar nuclei illustrated in middle and lower panels.
