Label	Id	Description
obsolete regional part of pontine tegmentum	UBERON_0024161
neck of radius	UBERON_0000199	[The narrow part of the shaft of the radius just below the head.]
neck of bone element	UBERON_0018664	[the neck region of a bone organ.]
proximal epiphysis of radius	UBERON_0004413	[A proximal epiphysis that is part of a radius [Automatically generated definition].]
tonsil crypt	UBERON_0012181	[Tonsils consist of an extensive system of crypts, which result in a large internal surface. The tonsils contain four lymphoid compartments that influence immune functions, namely the reticular crypt epithelium, the extrafollicular area, the mantle zones of lymphoid follicles, and the follicular germinal centers. In human palatine tonsils, the very first part exposed to the outside environment is tonsillar epithelium.]
digit plus metapodial segment	UBERON_5002544	[A subdivision of the autopod consisting of digit plus the region incorporating a single metapodial element. These segments are typically repeated along the pre-axiom to post-axial axis.]
manual digit digitopodial skeleton	UBERON_5102389	[A subdivision of the skeleton of the autopod consisting of the phalanges of manual digit plus the associated metapodial element.]
skin appendage follicle	UBERON_0036150	[An organ subunit in the skin that gives rise to cutaneous appendage.]
diffuse placenta	UBERON_0036151	[A placenta in which the chorionic sac meets the uterine endometrium over its entire surface. The villi of the chorion are distributed evenly throughout the surface of the chorion, and they extend into processes in the uterine endometrium.]
placenta	UBERON_0001987	[organ of metabolic interchange between fetus and mother, partly of embryonic origin and partly of maternal origin[GO]. The fetal portion of the placenta is known as the villous chorion. The maternal portion is known as the decidua basalis. The two portions are held together by anchoring villi that are anchored to the decidua basalis by the cytotrophoblastic shell.]
obsolete tunica vasculosa plexus	UBERON_0012184	[.]
cotyledonary placenta	UBERON_0036152	[A placenta in which the villi clumped together into circular patches called cotyledons. The fetal cotyledon meets with maternal regions called caruncles to form the placentome where maternal-fetal exchanges take place.]
zonary placenta	UBERON_0036153	[A placenta in which the chorionic villi have aggregated to form a broad band that circles about the center of the chorion. Such zones may be complete circles (such as those in dogs and cats) or incomplete (such as those in bears and seals). It is thought that zonary placentae form from diffuse placentae in which the villi at the ends regress, leaving only those in the center to function. At the edges of the zonary placenta is the hemophagous organ, which is green. The color is due to the degradation of hemoglobin into bilivirdin. This green organ provides iron for the developing fetus.]
discoid placenta	UBERON_0036154	[A placenta in which part of the chorion remains smooth, while the other part interacts with the endometrium to form the placenta. The maternal blood cells are in direct contact with the fetal chorion.]
lateral line	UBERON_0010202	[The lateral line consists of small sensory patches (neuromasts) located superficially on the skin or just under the skin in fluid-filled canals on the head and body of all fishes and most amphibians. The lateral line develops from cranial ectodermal placodes situated behind the ear and between the eye and ear.]
anterior lateral line primordium	UBERON_2005117	[A migrating group of cells originating from an anterior lateral line placode. The primordium deposits neuromasts and interneuromasts between them during its migration.]
posterior lateral line system	UBERON_2001471	[The posterior lateral line system develops from cranial ectodermal placodes, situated behind the ear, that give rise to both the neuromasts and the posterior lateral line sensory nerves that innervate the neuromasts. The posterior lateral line system consists of small sensory patches (neuromasts) located superficially on the skin or just under the skin in fluid-filled canals on the head of all fishes and most amphibians. The neuromasts are innervated by several lateral line nerves, which project primarily to the hindbrain. The posterior mechanosensory lateral line system is stimulated by local water displacements and vibrations, and detects propulsion of the fish through the water, as well as facilitating shoaling, prey capture, and predator and obstacle avoidance.]
ovary growing follicle	UBERON_0012186	[An ovarian follicle undergoing maturation.]
anterior lateral line neuromast	UBERON_2001472	[Neuromast that is part of the anterior lateral line. Kimmel et al, 1995. (Also see Anatomical Atlas entry for lateral line by T. Whitfield.)]
frontal artery	UBERON_0012187	[The supratrochlear artery (or frontal artery), one of the terminal branches of the ophthalmic artery, branches off where the ophthalmic travels posterior to the trochlea.]
