The subcallosal area is also known as "Zuckerkandl's gyrus", for Emil Zuckerkandl.

The parahippocampal gyrus, subcallosal area, and cingulate gyrus have been described together as the periarcheocortex.

The "subcallosal area" and "parolfactory area" are considered equivalent in BrainInfo, but in Terminologia Anatomica they are considered distinct structures.
