“…Together with AA (Arcopallium anterior), these regions are considered premotor structures that innervate pallial, diencephalic, and brainstem structures down to cervical spinal levels (Zeier and Karten, 1971). At the same time AA, AD, and AI are associative structures that receive input from NCL (Leutgeb et al, 1996), auditory (Wild et al, 1993), trigeminal (Wild et al, 1985b), somatosensory (Kröner and Güntürkün, 1999), and visual structures (Bagnoli and Burkhalter, 1983; Husband and Shimizu, 1999). …”

Many species of birds, including pigeons, possess demonstrable cognitive capacities, and some are capable of cognitive feats matching those of apes. Since mammalian cortex is laminar while the avian telencephalon is nucleated, it is natural to ask whether the brains of these two cognitively capable taxa, despite their apparent anatomical dissimilarities, might exhibit common principles of organization on some level. Complementing recent investigations of macro-scale brain connectivity in mammals, including humans and macaques, we here present the first large-scale “wiring diagram” for the forebrain of a bird. Using graph theory, we show that the pigeon telencephalon is organized along similar lines to that of a mammal. Both are modular, small-world networks with a connective core of hub nodes that includes prefrontal-like and hippocampal structures. These hub nodes are, topologically speaking, the most central regions of the pigeon's brain, as well as being the most richly connected, implying a crucial role in information flow. Overall, our analysis suggests that indeed, despite the absence of cortical layers and close to 300 million years of separate evolution, the connectivity of the avian brain conforms to the same organizational principles as the mammalian brain.

“…Thus, SRt projects to the whole mesopallium. SRt receives afferents from the globus pallidus, ventral pallidum, substantia nigra, parabrachial nucleus, and cerebellar nuclei (Wild et al, 1990; Arends and Zeigler, 1991; Medina and Reiner, 1997; Medina et al, 1997), and projects to the visual Wulst, nidopallium, arcopallium, and hippocampal formation, in addition to the mesopallium (Miceli and Repérant, 1985; Leutgeb et al, 1996; Kröner and Güntürkün, 1999; Atoji and Wild, 2004, 2009). SRt appears to send motor‐related information widely to the pallium, including the mesopallium.…”

The mesopallium is a thick cell plate occupying a substantial portion of the avian dorsal pallium, but its hodology is incompletely known. In pigeons we examined fiber connections of the frontodorsal (MFD) and frontoventral mesopallium (MFV), the ventrolateral mesopallium (MVL), the lateral (MIVl) and medial (MIVm) parts of the intermediate ventral mesopallium, and the caudal mesopallium (MC). MFV, MIVl, and MC connect reciprocally with secondary centers of the trigeminal, tectofugal, and auditory systems, respectively. MVL forms reciprocal connections with both the entopallial core and belt. MFV, MIVl, MVL, and MC receive thalamic inputs different from those of primary sensory pallial regions and have reciprocal connections with the caudolateral nidopallium (NCL) or arcopallium. MIVm has a strong reciprocal connection with the intermediate medial nidopallium. It receives afferents from the visual Wulst, rostral MC, posterior dorsointermediate thalamic nucleus, and caudal part of the posterior dorsolateral thalamic nucleus, is connected reciprocally with the arcopallium, and projects to NCL. MFD has reciprocal connections with the medial frontal nidopallium, arcopallium, posterior pallial amygdala, dorsolateral corticoid area, and projects to the medial part of medial striatum and hypothalamus. These results indicate that six subdivisions of the mesopallium have strong connections with corresponding portions of the nidopallium. In particular, the sensory mesopallial components of MFV, MIVl, MVL, and MC form parallel pathways to the one-way sensory streams in the nidopallium and make either feedback or feedforward circuits to the secondary centers of the nidopallium.

“…The arcopallial subregions of birds are considered to be functionally comparable to (pre)motor cortical areas by some researchers (Reiner et al, 2004;Jarvis et al, 2005;Chen et al, 2013;Whitney et al, 2014;Pfenning et al, 2014;Karten, 2015;G€ unt€ urk€ un & Bugnyar, 2016), while others still assume that all arcopallial regions belong to the amygdala (Puelles et al, 2000(Puelles et al, , 2007Medina et al, 2011;Bupesh et al, 2011). In pigeons the arcopallial subregions receive input from the NCL, the functional analog of the mammalian prefrontal cortex (G€ unt€ urk€ un & Bugnyar, 2016;Herold, Diekamp, & G€ unt€ urk€ un, 2008;Herold, Joshi, et al, 2012;Leutgeb et al, 1996), as well as auditory (Wild et al, 1993), trigeminal (Wild et al, 1985), somatosensory (Kr€ oner & G€ unt€ urk€ un, 1999) and visual pallial areas (Husband & Shimizu, 1999).…”

At the beginning of the 20th century it was suggested that a complex group of nuclei in the avian posterior ventral telencephalon is comparable to the mammalian amygdala. Subsequent findings, however, revealed that most of these structures share premotor characteristics, while some indeed constitute the avian amygdala. These developments resulted in 2004 in a change of nomenclature of these nuclei, which from then on were named arcopallial or amygdala nuclei and referred to as the arcopallium/amygdala complex. The structural basis for the similarities between avian and mammalian arcopallial and amygdala subregions is poorly understood. Therefore, we analyzed binding site densities for glutamatergic AMPA, NMDA and kainate, GABAergic GABA , muscarinic M , M and nicotinic acetylcholine (nACh; α β subtype), noradrenergic α and α , serotonergic 5-HT and dopaminergic D receptors using quantitative in vitro receptor autoradiography combined with a detailed analysis of the cyto- and myelo-architecture. Our approach supports a segregation of the pigeon's arcopallium/amygdala complex into the following subregions: the arcopallium anterius (AA), the arcopallium ventrale (AV), the arcopallium dorsale (AD), the arcopallium intermedium (AI), the arcopallium mediale (AM), the arcopallium posterius (AP), the nucleus posterioris amygdalopallii pars basalis (PoAb) and pars compacta (PoAc), the nucleus taeniae amgygdalae (TnA) and the area subpallialis amygdalae (SpA). Some of these subregions showed further subnuclei and each region of the arcopallium/amygdala complex are characterized by a distinct multi-receptor density expression. Here we provide a new detailed map of the pigeon's arcopallium/amygdala complex and compare the receptor architecture of the subregions to their possible mammalian counterparts.
