The tectum, located in the midbrain, contains the inferior and superior colliculi, which are groups of receptors that control auditory and visual reflexes, respectively. The tectum is also a component of the basic emotional system. The basal ganglia, substantia nigra, and putamen are all structures located in the forebrain, not the midbrain.
