Label	Id	Description
obsolete dorsal fin lepidotrichium	UBERON_2001418	[Lepidotrichium which is part of the dorsal fin.]
parabrachial pigmental nucleus	UBERON_0013738	[Nucleus identified in the medial ventral tegmental area that borders the red nucleus and superior cerebellar peduncle dorsally, the medial lemniscus laterally, the subtantia nigra pars compacta and paranigral nucleus ventrally and the rostral linear nucleus and interfascicular nucleus medially. Generally, the largest nucleus in the ventral tegmental area, occupying an average of 50% of the total volume as measured in rat, cat, monkey and human.]
dorsal fin pterygiophore	UBERON_2001419	[A range of seven to nine rod-like internal median skeletal support structures of the dorsal fin, comprised of both bone and cartilage and found between vertebrae 11 and 18.]
dorsal fin skeleton	UBERON_4000168	[Median fin skeleton located on the dorsal surface of the organism.]
sclera	UBERON_0001773	[Opaque fibrous outer layer of the eyeball[ZFA,Kardong,WP].]
eye mesenchyme	UBERON_0003314	[Mesenchyme that is part of a developing camera-type eye.]
tunica fibrosa of eyeball	UBERON_0012430	[The sclera and cornea form the fibrous tunic of the bulb of the eye; the sclera is opaque, and constitutes the posterior five-sixths of the tunic; the cornea is transparent, and forms the anterior sixth.]
trabecula	UBERON_0000440	[A small, often microscopic, tissue element in the form of a small beam, strut or rod, generally having a mechanical function, and usually but not necessarily composed of dense collagenous tissue. On histological section, a trabecula can look like a septum, but in three dimensions they are topologically distinct, with trabeculae being roughly rod or pillar-shaped and septa being sheet-like. Trabeculae are usually composed of dense fibrous tissue, i.e. mainly of collagen, and in most cases provide mechanical strengthening or stiffening to a soft solid organ, such as the spleen. They can be composed of other materials, such as bone or muscle[WP].]
skeletal muscle of trunk	UBERON_0001774	[A skeletal muscle organ that is part of the trunk region.]
trunk region element	UBERON_0005177	[An organ or element that part of the trunk region. The trunk region can be further subdividied into thoracic (including chest and thoracic cavity) and abdominal (including abdomen and pelbis) regions.]
musculature of trunk	UBERON_0004479	[Any collection of muscles that is part of a trunk [Automatically generated definition].]
ciliary body	UBERON_0001775	[the thickened portion of the vascular tunic, which lies between the choroid and the iris, composed of ciliary muscle and ciliary processes]
ciliary muscle	UBERON_0001605	[The ciliary muscle is a ring of smooth muscle in the middle layer of the eye that controls the eye's accommodation for viewing objects at varying distances and regulates the flow of aqueous humour through Schlemm's canal. [WP,unvetted].]
ciliary processes	UBERON_0010427	[The ciliary processes are formed by the inward folding of the various layers of the choroid, i.e. , the choroid proper and the lamina basalis, and are received between corresponding foldings of the suspensory ligament of the lens.]
neurectoderm	UBERON_0002346	[Embryonic ectoderm that gives rise to nervous tissue.]
anterior uvea	UBERON_0011892	[Front (ventral) portion of the vascular, pigmentary, or middle coat of the eye, including the ciliary body and the iris.]
optic choroid	UBERON_0001776	[vascular layer containing connective tissue, of the eye lying between the retina and the sclera. The choroid provides oxygen and nourishment to the outer layers of the retina. Along with the ciliary body and iris, the choroid forms the uveal tract[WP].]
vasculature of eye	UBERON_0002203	[Vasculature that is part of the eye region.]
uvea	UBERON_0001768	[the pigmented middle of the three concentric layers that make up an eye, consisting of the iris, ciliary body and choroid[WP,edited].]
retina	UBERON_0000966	[The retina is the innermost layer or coating at the back of the eyeball, which is sensitive to light and in which the optic nerve terminates.]
