Identifier Name Description
WBPhenotype:0001522 spicules protrude The elongated sclerotized structures covered by a hardened layer of cuticle in the male tail (which are actively everted during copulation to fasten the male copulatory fan to the vulva) constitutively extend into the external environment through the cloacal opening. In C. elegans males there are two copulatory spicules.
WBPhenotype:0000344 cloacal structures protrude Any of the contents that comprise the epithelial chamber that links the genital and alimentary tracts to the exterior via the anus extend into the external environment through the cloacal opening.

Identifier Name Description
WBPhenotype:0000598 alimentary system morphology variant Variations in the form, structure or composition of the series of related tissues lying within the body cavity and devoted to feeding and digestion compared to control (Wormatlas).
WBPhenotype:0000605 reproductive system morphology variant Any variations in the form, structure or composition of a set of interacting or interdependent entities forming the reproductive system, compared to control. The reproductive system is involved in the generation of progeny which contain genetic material inherited from the parents.
