[edit] I

I removed the few data giving the connections that are explained in the text. I did not make too many modifications to what is the commonly learned list coming from Walker (1938).Many small nuclei on the midline for instance no more exist in humans. I would simply add that there is no lateral (or dorsal) group since its major part, the pulvinar, belongs to the posterior group, along with the lateralis posterior which is a simple anterior extension. On his side, the lateralis dorsalis is a part of the anterior or superior group dealing with information from the subiculum and fornical system -user:gerard.percheron
