0 a small rounded part projecting from the surface of the skin or a body part, for example the taste buds on the tongue -- papille
1 a small part projecting from a plant -- papille
The cuticle is covered with minute, close-set papillae, and bears numerous setae, approximately 0-02 mm. in length, on both dorsal and ventral surfaces.
The dorsal papilla failed to give a positive reaction with phalloidin, suggesting it is not muscular.
The same 3 types of cell inclusions were observed and, as in the papillae, no ducts were seen connecting the cells to the tegument surface.
Through a twisting of the two bodies, the free sucker of one individual embraces the free papilla of its mate.
Very strong immunoreactivity and staining in the region of the dorsal papilla was found for all 3 neuronal mediators examined.
The morphology associated with the multiple optic papillae and retinal ganglion cell distribution.
There are two small papillae on each side of the clypeus.
Once both ventral suckers are attached to their respective papillae, lysis and fusion of the adjoining tissues begin.
