The lentiform nucleus the caudate and other nuclei are collectively called the what?
The basal ganglia include the following masses of gray matter in the interior of each cerebral hemisphre: # Caudate nucleus # Lentiform nucleus # Amygdaloid nucleus A structure associated with the basal ganglia is the internal capsule.It is a large mass of white matter located between the caudate and lentiform nuclei and between the lentiform nucleus and thalamus. The caudate nucleus, internal capsule, and lentiform nucleus constitute the corpus striatum, meaning striped body.
What is the striatum?
The term corpus striatum (striated body) has been used to refer to the caudate and lentiform nuclei, or to the caudate nucleus and putamen. The name refers to the striated (striped) appearance of the internal capsule as it passes among these nuclei. The amygdaloid body, part of the limbic system, lies anterior to the tail of the caudate nucleus and inferior to the lentiform nucleus. Martini & Nath, (2009). Fundamentals of Anatomy and Physiology.

Effector part = globus pallidusSensory part (or the receptor nuclei) = caudate nucleus + putamen
