In the human brain, the [[Biology:Entorhinal cortex|entorhinal cortex]] appears as a longitudinal elevation anterior to the parahippocampal gyrus, with a corresponding internal furrow, the external '''rhinal sulcus''' (or '''rhinal fissure'''), separating it from the inferiolateral surface of the hemisphere close to the [[Biology:Lamina terminalis|lamina terminalis]]. It is analogous to the [[Biology:Collateral fissure|collateral fissure]] found further caudally in the inferior part of the temporal lobe.
