The ventral nuclear group is a collection of nuclei on the ventral side of the thalamus. According to MeSH, it consists of the following: ventral anterior nucleus ventral lateral nucleus ventral posterior nucleus [WP,unvetted][Wikipedia:Ventral_nuclear_group].
consider splitting nucleus from nuclear group (FMA has 'nucleus of subthalamus') - but note this is also treated as a nucleus (singular) in FMA. ZFA:0005576 represents an individual nucleus within the group
