| Definitions |
A transverse unitary subdivision of the neural tube that shares a common dorsoventral structure (floor, basal, alar, and roof plates), but each having differential molecular identities and fates; they comprise the secondary prosencephalon, diencephalon (prosomeres), the midbrain (mesomeres), and the hindbrain (rhombomeres). |

We take the definition of neuromere from Puelles et al, although the existence of mesomeres and prosomeres may not be widely accepted |
