Label	Id	Description
obsolete Stiftchenzellen	UBERON_3010631	[Possibly chemoreceptor cells in anuran larvae.]
obsolete ventral ramus of occulomotor nerve	UBERON_3010632	[Innervates m. rectus medialis, m. rectus inferior, m. obliquus inferior.]
root of nail	UBERON_0015886	[The part of the nail plate that extends into the dermis (nail matrix)]
alveolar gland	UBERON_0013223	[In contrast to tubular glands, in the second main variety of gland, the secretory portion is enlarged and the lumen variously increased in size. These are termed alveolar glands (or saccular glands, or acinar glands, or acinous glands). Some sources draw a clear distinction between acinar and alveolar glands, based upon the shape of the lumen. A further complication in the case of the alveolar glands may occur in the form of still smaller saccular diverticuli growing out from the main sacculi. These are termed alveoli. The term 'tubulo-alveolar' (or 'tubulo-acinar', or 'compound tubulo-acinar', or 'compound tubulo-alveolar') is used to describe glands that start out as branched tubular, and branch further to terminate in alveoli. This type of gland is found in the salivary glands, esophagus, and mammary glands. The term 'racemose gland' is used to describe a 'compound alveolar gland' or 'compound acinar gland'.]
CA1 stratum radiatum	UBERON_0014554	[Part of stratum radiatum lying in area CA1, superficial to the CA1 pyramidal cell layer and deep to the CA1 stratum lucidum-moleculare, continuous with the stratum radiatum of CA2 and bounded by the subiculum. It contains the Schaffer collateral projection from CA3.]
otic notch	UBERON_0013222	[Otic notches are invagination in the posterior margin of the skull roof, one behind each orbit. Such notches are found in labyrinthodonts and some of their immediate ancestors, but not their reptilian descendants. The presence or absence of the otic notches is one of the traits used to separate the amniotes from the amphibian grade tetrapods.]
CA3 stratum oriens	UBERON_0014553	[Part of stratum oriens lying in area CA3 deep to the CA3 pyramidal cell layer and continuous with stratum oriens of area CA2 and bounded by the dentate gyrus hilus.]
CA1 stratum oriens	UBERON_0014552	[Part of stratum oriens lying in area CA1, superficial to the alveus of CA1 and deep to the pyramidal cell layer of CA1. It is continuous with the stratum oriens of CA2 and bounded by the subiculum]
foramen of Panizza	UBERON_0013220	[A hole with that connects the left and right aorta in animals of the order Crocodilia.]
CA2 stratum oriens	UBERON_0014551	[Part of stratum oriens lying in area CA2 deep to the CA2 pyramidal cell layer and continuous with stratum oriens of area CA2 and bounded by the dentate gyrus hilus[Modified from NIFSTD by CJM].]
crypt of Henle	UBERON_0013227	[Crypts of Henle are microscopic pockets found in scattered sections of the conjunctiva around the eyeball. They are responsible for secreting mucin, a proteinous substance that makes up the inner layer of tears. It coats the cornea to provide a hydrophilic layer that allows for even distribution of the tear film. The layer of mucin allows tears to glide evenly across the eye's surface[WP].]
CA2 stratum lacunosum moleculare	UBERON_0014558	[Part of stratum lacunosum-moleculare lying in area CA2, superficial to the CA2 stratum radiatum, that is continuous with the stratum lacunosum-moleculare in areas CA3 and CA1]
obsolete mucous surface cell	UBERON_3010637	[Type of mucous-producing cell that appears in early larval stages and persists after metamorphosis.]
CA1 stratum lacunosum moleculare	UBERON_0014557	[Part of stratum lacunosum-moleculare lying in area CA1, superficial to CA1 stratum radiatum and bounded by the pial surface, continuous with stratum lacunosum-moleculare of CA2 and the subiculum stratum moleculare]
gluteal lymph node	UBERON_0015883
obsolete ciliary cell	UBERON_3010638	[A type of cell that develops in embryos and functions in embryonic movements.]
CA3 stratum radiatum	UBERON_0014556	[Part of stratum radiatum in area CA3, lying superficial to the stratum lucidum and deep to CA3 stratum lacunosum-moleculare.]
presymphysial lymph node	UBERON_0015884
cymba conchae of pinna	UBERON_0015885
Ciaccio's gland	UBERON_0013224	[Ciaccio's glands are small tubular accessory lacrimal glands (glandulae lacrimales accessoriae) found in the lacrimal caruncle of the eyelid. They are located in the upper border of the tarsus, approximately in the middle between the extremities of the tarsal glands. Sometimes they are situated slightly above the tarsus. There are usually 2 to 5 of these glands in the upper eyelid, and their function is to produce tears which are secreted onto the surface of the conjunctiva. They are named after Italian anatomist Giuseppe Vincenzo Ciaccio (1824b1901), who described these glands in 1874. They are sometimes called Wolfring's glands after Polish ophthalmologist Emilj von Wolfring (1832-1906), who described them during the same time period as did Ciaccio. Another type of accessory lacrimal gland are Krause's glands, which are smaller, more numerous than Ciaccio's glands and are found along the superior and inferior fornices of the conjunctival sac.]
