In the neuroanatomy of animals, an avian pallium is the dorsal telencephalon of a bird's brain. The subpallium is the ventral telencephalon.
The pallium of 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. Evidence suggests the avian pallium's neuroarchitecture to be reminiscent of the mammalian cerebral cortex.[1] The avian pallium has also been suggested to be an equivalent neural basis for consciousness.[2][3]
A 2002 conference at Duke University (Avian Brain Nomenclature Consortium) established a standard nomenclature for describing the avian pallium as follows:[4][5][6][7]
- Pallium
- 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
- Pallidum
- Globus pallidus or dorsal pallidum
- Ventral pallidum
