Identifier	Name	Description
WBPhenotype:0000430	male copulatory structure development variant	Any variation in the progression of the specialized structures of the male tail which allow the animal to sense the presence of the hermaphrodite, search her body for the vulval opening, grasp onto the vulva, and to transfer sperm over time from its formation to its mature structure compared to control (Wormatlas).
WBPhenotype:0000930	sexually dimorphic development variant	Variations in the progression of morphogenic processes required for formation or proper placement of sex-specific structures that distinguish the animal as one sex or the other in the population, over time from an initial condition to a later condition compared to control animals.
