Label	Id	Description
nucleus of trapezoid body	UBERON_0007633	[A nucleus embedded within the fibers of the trapezoid body.]
medial superior olivary nucleus	UBERON_0002782	[One of two subnuclei of the superior olive located within the caudal pontine tegmentum. Appears as a parasagittal row of transversely oriented bipolar neurons in transverse sections of human, with elongated somata in humans and other primates and large caliber dendrites.]
inferior part of vestibular ganglion	UBERON_0002826
vestibular ganglion	UBERON_0002824	[The ganglion of the vestibular nerve. It contains the cell bodies of the bipolar primary afferent neurons whose peripheral processes form synaptic contact with hair cells of the vestibular sensory end organs[WP,unvetted]. Distributed to the maculae of the utricle and saccule and to the ampullary crests of the semicircular ducts. The vestibular fibers arise in bipolar cells in the vestibular ganglion in the internal acoustic meatus.]
epithelium of otic placode	UBERON_0003249	[An epithelium that is part of a otic placode [Automatically generated definition].]
dorsal cochlear nucleus	UBERON_0002829	[The dorsal cochlear nucleus (DCN, also known as the 'tuberculum acousticum'), is a cortex-like structure on the dorso-lateral surface of the brainstem. Along with the ventral cochlear nucleus, it forms the cochlear nucleus, where all auditory nerve fibers from the cochlea form their first synapses. [WP,unvetted].]
macula lutea proper	UBERON_0002822	[The part of the macula lutea that excludes the fovea.]
clivus of fovea centralis	UBERON_0002823
vestibular organ	UBERON_0006585	[An organ that is part of a vestibular system.]
ganglion of peripheral nervous system	UBERON_0003338	[A spatially aggregated collection of nerve cell bodies in the PNS, consisting of one or more subpopulations that share cell type, chemical phenotype, and connections. (CUMBO).]
vestibular nerve	UBERON_0003723	[The vestibular nerve is one of the two branches of the Vestibulocochlear nerve (the cochlear nerve being the other). It goes to the semicircular canals via the vestibular ganglion. It receives positional information. Axons of the vestibular nerve synapse in the vestibular nucleus on the lateral floor and wall of the fourth ventricle in the pons and medulla. It arises from bipolar cells in the vestibular ganglion, ganglion of Scarpa, which is situated in the upper part of the outer end of the internal auditory meatus. [WP,unvetted].]
vestibular labyrinth	UBERON_0001862	[The part of the membranous labyrinth that includes the utricle and saccule lodged within the vestibule and the semicircular ducts lodged eccentrically in the corresponding canals.]
superior part of vestibular ganglion	UBERON_0002825	[The part of the vestibular ganglion that receives fibers from the maculae of the utricle and the sacculae and the ampullae of the anterior and lateral semicircular ducts.]
median nuchal line attachment site	UBERON_0014804	[Of the nuchal lines, the one that runs from the external occipital protuberance a ridge or crest is the median nuchal line, often faintly marked, descends to the foramen magnum, and affords attachment to the ligamentum nuchae.]
nuchal line attachment site	UBERON_0014801	[Any of the four curved lines on the external surface of the occipital bone that serves as an attachment site for a muscle.]
superior nuchal line attachment site	UBERON_0014803	[Of the nuchal lines, the one below the highest nuchal line is the superior nuchal line. To it is attached the Occipitalis muscle, the Splenius capitis muscle, the trapezius muscle, and the Sternocleidomastoid muscle.]
highest nuchal line attachment site	UBERON_0014802	[Of the nuchal lines, the upper, often faintly marked, is named the highest nuchal line, but is sometimes referred to as the Mempin Line, and to it the galea aponeurotica is attached.]
attachment site	UBERON_4200047	[Morphological struture denoting the exent of an attachment site for a soft tissue on a skeletal element.]
inferior nuchal line attachment site	UBERON_0014805	[Of the nuchal lines, the one running from the middle of the median line is the inferior nuchal line. Attached are the Obliquus capitis superior muscle, Rectus capitis posterior major muscle, and Rectus capitis posterior minor muscle.]
third cervical dorsal root ganglion	UBERON_0002840
