adult median tract of dorsal cervical fasciculus [FBbt_00053282]
Tract that contains the axons of a large number of descending neurons that project to the tectulum (Namiki et al., 2018. The majority of its neurons bend ventrally upon entering the VNC, with a smaller number following the dorsal surface of the VNC and joining the ventral neurons more posteriorly (Namiki et al., 2018. (Namiki et al., 2018)

Adult Nervous system Neuron projection bundle
Tract that contains the axons of a large number of descending neurons that project to the tectulum (Namiki et al., 2018. The majority of its neurons bend ventrally upon entering the VNC, with a smaller number following the dorsal surface of the VNC and joining the ventral neurons more posteriorly (Namiki et al., 2018. (Namiki et al., 2018)
Cheong et al. (2024) say the main ventral tract does not overlap with DMT from Court et al. (2020) - FBrf0246815.
