The diencephalon is the part of the forebrain that contains such important structures as the thalamus, hypothalamus and the posterior portion of the pituitary gland. The hypothalamus performs numerous vital functions, most of which relate directly or indirectly to the regulation of visceral activities by way of other brain regions and the autonomic nervous system.

I looked into this as well before I knew there was an answer for it on here. According to graphs I have seen the Diencephalon is part of the brain stem, and it connects all the thalamus families together.
Its the Hypothalamus
Diencephalon
The two major components of the diencephalon are the thalamus and the hypothalamus.
what are the two main parts of the diencephalon
Structures that are not part of the diencephalon include the cerebellum, brainstem, and cerebral cortex.
There are two structures that make up the Diencephalon. The main structure of the diencephalon is hypothalamus thalamus and the second is the subthalamus.
Yes, it is a par of diencephalon. Diencephalon includes thalamus, pineal gland, hypothalamus, and a part of the pituitary gland. Globus pallidus (a part of basal ganglia) also originated from diencephalon.
