Label	Id	Description
mormyromast organ	UBERON_0017629	[An innervated group of cells in a round capsule at the end of a jelly-filled tube opening to the skin surface of Gymnarchidae and Mormyridae.]
swim bladder gas gland	UBERON_0017628	[A structure with numerous blood vessels (retia mirabilia) in the gas bladder that secretes gases from the blood.]
rete mirabile	UBERON_0013218	[A rete mirabile (Latin for 'wonderful net'; plural retia mirabilia) is a complex of arteries and veins lying very close to each other, found in some vertebrates. The rete mirabile utilizes countercurrent blood flow within the net (blood flowing in opposite directions. ) It exchanges heat, ions, or gases between vessel walls so that the two bloodstreams within the rete maintain a gradient with respect to temperature, or concentration of gases or solutes.]
manual digit 4 epithelium	UBERON_0005647	[An epithelium that is part of a manual digit 4.]
distal phalanx of digit 1	UBERON_0014483	[A distal phalanx that is part of a digit 1 [Automatically generated definition].]
pedal digit 1 phalanx	UBERON_0003640	[A phalanx that is part of a foot digit 1 [Automatically generated definition].]
manual digit 5 epithelium	UBERON_0005648	[An epithelium that is part of a manual digit 5.]
distal phalanx of digit 5	UBERON_0014487	[A distal phalanx that is part of a digit 5 [Automatically generated definition].]
distal phalanx of digit 3	UBERON_0014485	[A distal phalanx that is part of a digit 3. In odd-toes ungulates (Perissodactyla e.g. horses) this is called the coffin bone. In even-toed ungulates (Artiodactyla e.g cattle) this is associated with the medial claw.]
peptonephridium	UBERON_0006976	[Organs opening into the buccal cavity of pharynx (supposedly modified nephridia) of invertebrates.]
nephridium	UBERON_0006972	[An exceretory tubule that usually opens to the exterior by a nephridiopore. The inner end of the tubule may be blind, ending in flame cells (protonephridium) or may open into the coelom through a ciliated funnel (metanephridium).]
manual digit 2 epithelium	UBERON_0005645	[An epithelium that is part of a manual digit 2.]
manual digit 3 epithelium	UBERON_0005646	[An epithelium that is part of a manual digit 3.]
distal phalanx of digit 2	UBERON_0014484	[A distal phalanx that is part of a digit 2 [Automatically generated definition].]
metanephridium	UBERON_0006974	[A type of excretory gland or nephridium found in many types of invertebrates such as Annelids, Arthropods and Molluscs. It typically consists of a ciliated funnel opening into the body cavity or coelom connected to a duct which may be variously glandularized, folded or expanded (vesiculate) and which typically opens to the organism's exterior. These ciliated tubules pump water carrying surplus ions, metabolic waste, toxins from food, and useless hormones out of the organism through openings known as nephrostomes. This waste is passed out of the body at the nephridiopore. The primary urine produced by filtration of blood (or a similar functioning fluid) is modified into secondary urine through selective reabsorption by the cells lining the metanephridium. In many earthworms the nephridial ducts open into the digestive tract instead, a condition known as enteronephry.]
foregut duodenum epithelium	UBERON_0005643	[An epithelium that is part of a duodenum of foregut.]
foregut region of duodenum	UBERON_0003286
midgut duodenum epithelium	UBERON_0005644	[An epithelium that is part of a duodenum of midgut.]
midgut region of duodenum	UBERON_0003287
distal phalanx of digit 4	UBERON_0014486	[A distal phalanx that is part of a digit 4 [Automatically generated definition].]
