NOMINA ANATOMICA, Sixth Edition

International Anatomical Nomenclature Committee. Edinburgh: Churchill Livingstone, 1989.

Report of international committees convened periodically to develop consensus on nomenclatures for human anatomy; Latin nomenclature; little narrative description; no illustrations; the most authoritative source for a hierarchical neuroanatomical nomenclature of major subdivisions of the brain.

The upper levels of the Latin brain hierarchy of NeuroNames are based primarily on Nomina-83. Changed names introduced in this, the 1989 edition, are included as synonyms in NeuroNames.
