Cytoarchitectonic peculiarities and neuronal organization of periamygdaloid cortex (PAC) of rat brain was studied at three levels: rostral and caudal regions of central part and in posterior part of amygdala using Nissl and Golgi methods. Neuronal composition characteristic for each level and interrelations between neurons of different layers were determined. Different levels of PAC vary in architecture of neurons. Periamygdaloid cortex at the rostral level of central region is characterized with more simple organization.
