Uberon definition : Subcortical brain region lying anterior to the hippocampal formation in the temporal
lobe and anterior to the temporal horn of the lateral ventricle in some species. It
is usually subdivided into several groups. Functionally, it is not considered a unitary
structure (MM).;
Uberon related term : amygdaloid nuclear group; nucleus amygdalae; amygdaloid nucleus; amygdaloid area;
Uberon Homology note : One part of the striatum is called the archistriatum. (...) The archistriatum of fishes
consists of several indistinctly segregated nuclei called the amygdaloid (...) complex.
Tetrapods retain the structure, and in mammals the corresponding amygdala is a globular
mass that tends to be ventral to the other basal nuclei.[well established][VHOG];
