The term fundus striati (primate) refers to the transitional zone between the caudate nucleus and the putamen. As defined in the primate, it includes the nucleus accumbens between the rostral portions of those structures ( Heimer-1995 ). The striatal fundus (rodent) is defined to be considerably less extensive ( Swanson-2004 ).
