vertebrate_core
ventral and anterior tegmental nucleus are synonyms in FMA, but we split these into seperate classes. This is consistent with MA, ABA and neuronames, which treat these as distinct (NN suggest the anterior is a rodent specific structure)
nucleus of Gudden
nucleus ventralis tegmenti (Gudden)
rostral tegmental nucleus
nucleus ventralis tegmenti
ganglion tegmenti ventrale
nucleus tegmenti ventralis
nucleus tegmentales anteriores
nucleus tegmentalis anterior
anterior tegmental nucleus
ganglion profundum tegmenti
anterior tegmental nuclei
this is part of pons and brainstem in MA, but this leads to an inconsistency with ABA. We err on the side of safety, and exclude the relationship to the pons here.
