There is no separate label for Wernike's (it is a functional, not
anatomical, definition). Heschl's gyrus is separate from STG.
Perhaps Christophe can weigh in on his labels.

Dear All,
I am new to freesurfer and would appreciate your help with the
following questions.
I tried to look through the previous posts but couldn’t find the
answers to all my questions.
Thank you in advance.
Best,
Banu
My question:
I wanted to look at certain language related regions in the brain such
as Heschl’s gyrus, Wernicke’s area, and planum temporale.
I am looking at the lh.aparc.stats file right now. I see that there is
a label for superior temporal gyrus which would involve all these
three regions.
I was wondering if Heschl’s gyrus, Wernicke’s area, and planum
temporale are also segmented and labelled separately.
In the previous posts, I saw that anterior portion of transverse
temporal corresponds to Heschl’s gyrus, and under lh.aparc.stats file
it is labelled as transversetemporal.
I am still not sure about planum temporale and Wernicke’s areas
though. I saw planum temporale in the lh.aparc.a2009s.stats file (it
is called G_temp_sup-Plan-tempo, if I am correct). However, I am not
sure if it is a good idea getting values from two different stat files
(planum temporale from this one, and the rest from the other). Also,
could you tell me if Wernicke’s area is segmented, and if so how is it
labelled?
