Label	Id	Description
jugal point	UBERON_0013423	[The jugal point is the point at the anterior end of the upper border of the zygomatic arch where the masseteric and maxillary edges meet at an angle.]
infratemporal fossa	UBERON_0013422	[The infratemporal fossa is an irregularly shaped cavity, situated below and medial to the zygomatic arch. Boundaries defined by: anteriorly, by the infratemporal surface of the maxilla and the ridge which descends from its zygomatic process posteriorly, by the articular tubercle of the temporal and the spinal angularis of the sphenoid superiorly, by the greater wing of the sphenoid below the infratemporal crest, and by the under surface of the temporal squama, containing the foramen ovale, which transmits the mandibular branch of the trigeminal nerve, and the foramen spinosum, which transmits the middle meningeal artery inferiorly, by the medial pterygoid muscle attaching to the mandible medially, by the lateral pterygoid plate laterally, by the ramus of mandible, which contains the mandibular foramen, leading to the mandibular canal through which the inferior alveolar nerve passes. This also contains the lingula, a triangular piece of bone that overlies the mandibular foramen antero-medially. Finally, the mylohyoid groove descends obliquely transmitting the mylohyoid nerve the only motor branch of the anterior division of the trigeminal nerve.]
bone fossa	UBERON_0004704	[A depression or hollow in a bone[WP].]
vinculum tendon of wing	UBERON_0012119	[A tendon which emerges from the distal end of the humerus and follows the posterior margin of the wing, attaching at the distal end of digit 2. The raches of the remiges (i.e., the stems of the flight feathers) are stabilized by passing through the vinculum.]
forelimb connective tissue	UBERON_0003588	[A portion of connective tissue that is part of a forelimb [Automatically generated definition].]
forelimb wing	UBERON_0000024	[Forelimb that is used to produce lift for flight through the air.]
dorsal acoustic stria	UBERON_0002790	[white matter structure containing fibers arising from the cochlear nuclear complex]
lumen of nutrient foramen	UBERON_0012117	[An anatomical space that is part of a nutrient foramen conduit, leading to the medullary cavity of the bone.]
bone marrow cavity	UBERON_0002484	[the medullary cavities of the bones where bone marrow is stored]
nutrient foramen conduit	UBERON_0012116	[Any of the passages admitting nutrient vessels to the medullary cavity of bone]
arm	UBERON_0001460	[The part of the forelimb extending from the shoulder to the autopod[cjm].]
upper limb segment	UBERON_0008785	[A limb segment that is part of a forelimb.]
multi-limb segment region	UBERON_0006058	[A collection of two or more connected limb segments. Examples: arm (comprising stylopod and zeugopod regions).]
shoulder	UBERON_0001467	[A subdivision of the pectoral complex consisting of the structures in the region of the shoulder joint (which connects the humerus, scapula and clavicle).]
obsolete regional part of telencephalon	UBERON_0002791	[A regional part of brain that is part of a telencephalon [Automatically generated definition].]
infraspinatus tendon	UBERON_0012118	[The infraspinatus muscle inserts at this tendon to the distal greater tubercle of the humerus. This tendon stretches across the shoulder joint to attach to the humerus and in doing so acts as a very strong ligament to hold the joint surface in apposition. This structure restricts the movement of the shoulder joint to flexion and extension (together with the suscapularis tendon and the supraspinatus tendon). A bursa lies under this tendon at the greater tubercle of the humerus. The bursa is lined by a synovial membrance and filled with synovial fluid and protects the infraspinatus tendon and the shoulder joint by allowing the transmissions of tension and sheer forces around an angle.]
shoulder connective tissue	UBERON_0003579	[A portion of connective tissue that is part of a shoulder [Automatically generated definition].]
infraspinatus muscle	UBERON_0001477	[The infraspinatus muscle is a thick triangular muscle, which occupies the chief part of the infraspinatous fossa. The infraspinatus is a muscle of the rotator cuff. [WP,unvetted].]
liver reticuloendothelial system	UBERON_0014779	[A reticuloendothelial system that is part of a liver.]
sagittal keel	UBERON_0013448	[The Sagittal keel (torus) is a thickening of bone on part or all of the midline of the frontal bone, or parietal bones where they meet along the sagittal suture, or on both bones..]
