Preferred Label : adult central complex;
Uberon definition : A midline crossing complex of 4 synaptic neuropil domains of the adult brain: the
ellipsoid body, the fan-shaped body, the paired noduli, and the protocerebral bridge.
It is closely associated with another paired synaptic neuropil domain, the lateral
complex. It lies in the middle of the brain between the pedunculi of the mushroom
bodies and is bounded ventrally by the esophagus, dorsally by the pars intercerebralis
and laterally by the antenno-glomerular tracts.;
