Here, we demonstrate that unit responses recorded from the posteromedial lateral suprasylvian area, a visual association area specialized for the analysis of motion, also exhibit an oscillatory temporal structure. Cross-correlation analysis of unit responses reveals that cells in area 17 and the posteromedial lateral suprasylvian area can oscillate synchronously.
