Label	Id	Description
sublaminar layer S2	UBERON_0008923	[A retinal neural layer that is immediately adjacent to the S1 and S3 layers and comprises 20 percent of the inner plexiform layer of retina.]
sublaminar layer S1	UBERON_0008922	[A retinal neural layer that is immediately adjacent to the inner nuclear layer and comprises 20 percent of the inner plexiform layer of retina.]
obsolete mesenchyme from splanchnopleure	UBERON_0008920
occipito-petrosal	UBERON_3010831	[Fusion of the occipital segment or occipital ring and otic capsule (Francis, 1934).]
occipital segment	UBERON_3010832	[Metameric segment forming the back of the skull.]
obsolete mesenchyme from somatopleure	UBERON_0008919
ampulla of Lorenzini	UBERON_0008918	[The ampullae of Lorenzini are special sensing organs called electroreceptors, forming a network of jelly-filled pores. Each ampulla consists of a canal opening to the surface by a pore in the skin and ending blindly in a cluster of small pockets full of special jelly. The ampullae are mostly clustered into groups inside the body, each cluster having ampullae connecting with different parts of the skin, but preserving a left-right symmetry. The canal lengths vary from animal to animal, but the distribution of the pores is generally specific to each species. The ampullae pores are plainly visible as dark spots in the skin. They provide fish with a sixth sense capable of detecting electromagnetic fields as well as temperature gradients[WP].]
ampullary organ	UBERON_0008917	[Organ that consists of receptor cells located within an epidermal invagination and functions as an electroreceptor.]
spicule	UBERON_3010830
posterolateral supplementary element	UBERON_3010836	[A muscle slip arising from the ventral surface of the mandible by means of the ligament near the site of mandibular articulation. The fibers pass anteromedially and attach upon the ventral surfaces of the principal element of the m. intermandibularis (Tyler, 1971).]
apical supplementary element	UBERON_3010837	[A muscle slip arising from the lingual surface of the mandible on each side of the m. submentalis. The fibers pass posteromedially and attach upon the median raphe of the principal element (Tyler, 1971).]
anterolateral supplementary element	UBERON_3010838	[A muscle slip arising from the lingual surface of the mandible on the anterior portion of the bone. The fibers pass anteriorly, parallel to the mandible, and attach upon the ventral surface of the m. submentalis (Tyler, 1971).]
ciliated stratified columnar epithelium	UBERON_0007606
stratified columnar epithelium	UBERON_0007602	[Stratified columnar epithelia is a rare type of epithelial tissue composed of column shaped cells arranged in multiple layers. Stratified columnar epithelia are found in the ocular conjunctiva of the eye, in parts of the pharynx and anus, the female's uterus, the male urethra and vas deferens. Also found in intralobular ducts in salivary glands.[WP]]
visceral hump	UBERON_0008937	[Mollusks have three distinct divisions of their body. The head contains the sensory equipment (eyes, antennae, etc) and the primitive brain. The visceral hump, which is the main body, contains most of the organs, including a complete digestive and excretory tract as well as the reproductive organs. The visceral hump also includes the two external flaps of tissue, which are known as the mantle.]
gastropod genital pore	UBERON_0008936	[A small opening on the side of the head in some gastropods through which the penis is protruded.]
gastropod albumen gland	UBERON_0008935	[The posterior oviduct opens into the large white albumen gland which adds a layer of albumen to the zygote before it reaches the egg capsule gland.]
stratified cuboidal epithelium	UBERON_0007603	[Stratified cuboidal epithelia is a rare type of epithelial tissue composed of cuboidally shaped cells arranged in multiple layers. They protect areas such as ducts of sweat glands, mammary glands, and salivary glands.]
secondary somatosensory cortex	UBERON_0008934	[the area of the upper bank of the lateral sulcus that is involved in somatic sensation]
somatosensory cortex	UBERON_0008930	[Area of the parietal lobe concerned with receiving general sensations. It lies posterior to the central sulcus.]
