Uberon definition : A predominantly gray matter structure of the basal telencephalon defined on the basis
of Nissl stain. Caudal to the anterior commissure it lies deep to the globus pallidus
and dorsal to the amygdala. Rostral to the anterior commissure it lies deep to the
striatum. The more rostral portion contains the basal forebrain nucleus ( Anthoney-1994
). In the late twentieth century the region containing the substantia innominata was
resegmented on the basis of neurochemistry and connectivity to constitute the striatopallidal
system ( Heimer-1995 ). In this scheme the caudal portion of substantia innominata
is located largely in the ventral pallidum and the rostral portion in the ventral
striatum. (from Brain Info);
