CROSS-SPECIES ANATOMY - ANNOTATIONS

The Basic subset of the UBERON integrated, cross-species anatomy ontology is downloaded weekly from http://berkeleybop.org/ontologies/uberon/basic.obo. For more information about this ontology see the "About" page on the UBERON website at http://uberon.github.io/about.html.

Term:insect cephalopharyngeal skeleton

Accession:UBERON:6001845 term browser browse the term
Definition:A group of connected sclerites of the anterior embryonic/larval digestive system (atrium, pharynx and dorsal pouch). The cibarial dilator muscles connect to the cephalopharyngeal skeleton to lift the roof of the pharynx and thereby widen its lumen (Jurgens, 1986).
Synonyms:exact_synonym: cephalo-pharyngeal skeleton;   larval head skeleton;   mouth parts
 xref: FBbt:00001845
