In some birds the tract per se does not exist as the bulb is connected directly to the cerebral hemisphere.[ISBN:0471888893] neuronames:283 White matter tract that contains projections from the olfactory bulb to other parts of the brain.

It has been generalized so it is applicable to various different kinds of olfactory tracts found in different taxa.

It is a narrow white band, triangular on coronal section, the apex being directed upward. It lies in the olfactory sulcus on the inferior surface of the frontal lobe, and divides posteriorly into two striæ, a medial olfactory stria and a lateral olfactory stria.[Wikipedia].
