Uberon definition : Ventral part of the midbrain, separated from the hindbrain by the isthmus[ISBN:0471888893].
Subdivision of the midbrain lying anterior to the tectum and posterior to the substantia
nigra and cerebral peduncle[FMA] The part of the midbrain extending from the substantia
nigra to the cerebral aqueduct in a horizontal section of the midbrain. It forms the
floor of the midbrain that surrounds the cerebral aqueduct[WP].;

Uberon related term : mesencephalic tegmentum;
Uberon broad term : tegmentum; MTg;
Uberon Homology note : Together, our results reveal a shared basic organization in the tegmental domains
of the diencephalon and midbrain of developing lamprey, indicating early appearance
of the domain in vertebrate phylogeny.[well established][VHOG];
