Preferred Label : cerebellum vermis lobule VIIA;
Uberon definition : The folium vermis is a short, narrow, concealed band at the posterior extremity of
the vermis, consisting apparently of a single folium, but in reality marked on its
upper and under surfaces by secondary fissures. Laterally, it expands in either hemisphere
into a considerable lobule, the superior semilunar lobule (lobulus semilunaris superior;
postero-superior lobules), which occupies the posterior third of the upper surface
of the hemisphere, and is bounded below by the horizontal sulcus. The superior semilunar
lobules and the folium vermis form the lobus semilunaris.;
