septum (SPT)
The term septum (SPT) refers to a midline structure that separates the lateral ventricles (VNL) in the forebrain (FBR) of the human ( Carpenter, 1983 ), macaque ( Paxinos-2009a ), rat ( Swanson-2004 ) and mouse ( Hof-2000 ). In the human it consists of two parts, the septum pellucidum (spl) and the septal complex (SPX) ( Wikipedia ). The other species lack an spl.
