Nidopallium

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The nidopallium is the region of the avian brain that is used mostly for some types of executive function but also other higher cognitive tasks. The region was renamed to nidopallium in 2003 during the Avian Brain Nomenclature Consortium because the prior name suggested that the region was used for more primitive functions.
