You will find startx in the xbase-clients package.

If you want to use X, it is a good idea to install the
x-window-system-core package:

,----[ x-window-system-core ]-
|  This metapackage provides the essential components for a standalone
|  workstation running the X Window System.  It provides the X libraries,
|  an X server (except on the S/390 architecture), a set of fonts, and a
|  group of basic X clients and utilities.
|  .
|  Higher level metapackages, such as those for desktop environments, can
|  depend on this package and simplify their dependencies.
|  .
|  It should be noted that a package providing x-window-manager and a
|  package providing x-terminal-emulator should also be installed to ensure
|  a comfortable X experience.
