| female genital. | vulva | WBbt:0006748 | |
| a group of hypodermal cells that lie along the apical midline of the hypodermis, at the extreme left and right sides between nose and tail | seam cell | lateral hypodermis | WBbt:0005753 |
| Small linear ridges running along the lateral lines of the cuticle, lengthwise along the body; these thickenings lie in register with the seam cells which likely produce them and are present in the cuticle of the L1, dauer and adult stages, but not in other larval stages. The alae are suspected to provide better traction when the animal generates a bodywave. Since the animal usually lies on its side, the alae are in perfect position to catch against the substrate. | cuticular ala | alae | WBbt:0007832 |
