%X This research analyses the neuroanatomy of the harbour seal (Phoca vitulina) brain, focusing on adaptations for spatial navigation, and visual processing in a semi-aquatic environment. Using advanced neuroimaging techniques like 3D-polarised light imaging and histological mapping, it provides a detailed anatomical 3D-atlas. Key findings include precise measurements of brain regions, such as the caudate nucleus, hippocampus, and lateral geniculate nucleus. This research contributes to marine mammal neuroscience, offering a foundation for future comparative studies and functional investigations.<eng>
