gustatory hallucination

Somewhat less than half the cases include olfactory or gustatory hallucinations, and slightly more than a third involve motor automatisms.

The regions of the brain responsible for gustatory hallucination in this case are the insula and the superior bank of the sylvian fissure.

Many of the symptoms associated with this area involve the head and digestive tract: swallowing, salivation, mastication and possibly gustatory hallucinations.

They can include delusions, disordered thoughts and speech, and tactile, auditory, visual, olfactory and gustatory hallucinations, typically regarded as manifestations of psychosis.
