Uberon definition : On either side of the corpus collosum, the fibers radiate in the white substance and
pass to the various parts of the cerebral cortex; those curving forward from the genu
into the frontal lobe constitute the forceps anterior, and those curving backward
into the occipital lobe, the forceps posterior. Between these two parts is the main
body of the fibers which constitute the tapetum and extend laterally on either side
into the temporal lobe, and cover in the central part of the lateral ventricle. [Wikipedia
