Avian Brain
In the neuroanatomy of animals, an avian pallium is the dorsal telencephalon of a bird, bird's brain. The subpallium is the ventral telencephalon. The pallium (neuroanatomy), pallium of bird, avian species tends to be relatively large, comprising ~75% of the telencephalic volume. Birds have a unique pallial structure known as the hyperpallium, once called the ''hyperstriatum''. A 2002 conference at Duke University (Avian Brain Nomenclature Consortium) established a standard nomenclature for describing the avian pallium as follows: *Pallium (neuroanatomy), Pallium **piriform cortex, pyriform cortex **olfactory bulb **hippocampus **corticoid area **hyperpallium ***apicale ***intercalatum ***densocellulare **mesopallium ***dorsale ***ventrale **nidopallium ***field L2 ***entopallium ***basorostralis **arcopallium **amygdaloid complex ***posterior amygdala ***nucleus taeniae *Subpallium **striatum ***lateral (anatomy), lateral ***medial (anatomy), medial **pallidum ***globus pallidu ...
