“…Lesions or stimulation of the amygdala in reptiles and birds (or structures considered homologous to the amygdala) produce changes in social behavior or learning processes (Martínez-García et al, 2007). These changes are similar and show a comparable function to the amygdalar system of mammals.…”

“…Molnár and Butler expect the sauropsid ADVR is structurally homologous to the lateral neocotex, basolateral amygdalar complex, and claustrum-endopiriform nucleus because they originate from the same collopallial field. Ongoing research is attempting to resolve this discrepancy (Aboitiz, 2011;Butler et al, 2011;Karten, 2013;Luzzati et al, 2009;Martínez-Garcıa et al, 2009;Medina et al, 2013;Medina et al, 2011;Nomura et al, 2008).…”

“…In studies of birds and reptiles the DVR has been compared to the pallial amygdala and claustrum/endopiriform/piriform amygdalar complexes of mammals (Aboitiz et al, 2003;Bruce and Neary, 1995;González-Granero et al, 2011;Holmgren, 1922;Martínez-Garcıa et al, 2009;Nomura et al, 2013b;Striedter, 1997). This comparison is controversial, however, for some researchers have proposed it is homologous to the lateral (extrastriate and auditory) neocortex, instead (Jarvis et al, 2005;Karten, 1997).…”

“…Discrete auditory, somatosensory, and visual thalamic pathways terminate in the ADVR, including the infrared pathway from the pit organ. (Bruce and Neary, 1995;Martínez-Garcıa et al, 2009;Striedter, 1997).…”

“…It receives convergent inputs from the thalamus, and direct input from the parabrachial region-most likely visceroceptive, nocioceptive, and/or gustatory signals, and lastly amygdaloid input from the DLA/LA (dorsolateral amygdala and lateral amygdala) Martínez-Garcıa et al, 2009). …”

In tetrapods, the medial amygdala is a forebrain center that integrates olfactory and/or vomeronasal signals with the endocrine and autonomic systems, playing a key role in different social behaviors. The vomeronasal system has undergone important changes during evolution, which may be behind some interspecies differences in chemosensorymediated social behavior. These evolutionary changes are associated with variations in vomeronasal-recipient brain structures, including the medial amygdala. Herein, we employed an evolutionary developmental biology approach for trying to understand the function and evolution of the medial amygdala. For that purpose, we reviewed published data on fate mapping in mouse, and the expression of orthologous developmental regulatory genes (Nkx2.1, Lhx6, Shh, Tbr1, Lhx9, Lhx5, Otp, and Pax6) in embryos of mouse, chicken, emydid turtles, and a pipid frog. We also analyzed novel data on Lhx9 and Otp in a lacertid lizard.
