cerebral aqueduct which traversing the midbrain divides it into two main parts:Tectum (smaller dorsal part), which consists of = 2 superior and 2 inferior colliculi2 cerebral peduncles (larger ventral part), which consist of = crus cerebri + substantia nigra + tegmentum
The brain stem.
They are part of the midbrain. To be more specific, these 2 superior colliculi and 2 inferior colliculi can be found at the dorsal part of the midbrain which is the tectum.
The cerebral peduncles are located in the midbrain, which is the uppermost portion of the brainstem. They consist of white matter tracts that connect the cerebral cortex to other parts of the central nervous system, facilitating communication between different brain regions.

The Midbrain is the topmost part of the mesencephalon, and so damaging the mesencephalon could potentially harm the midbrain, but only if that is the part of the mesencephalon you damaged.

Alcohol takes over the midbrain and shuts down the Frontal Cortex. When this happens a persons ability to make good decisions is lessened. That part of the midbrain that is concerned survival food fear and sex takes over.
The part of the brain stem between the diencephalon and the pons is the midbrain, also known as the mesencephalon. It plays a crucial role in motor movement, auditory and visual processing, and regulating sleep-wake cycles. The midbrain contains structures such as the tectum, tegmentum, and substantia nigra.
The brain stem.
The midbrain is the most cephalic portion of the brain stem.
