zoologymedical
A lip or lip-like structure, such as the fused lower mouthpart of an insect or a fold of tissue at an opening of the body.
In an insect the labium forms the floor of the mouth and is built from the second pair of jaws joined together, often with a pair of small feelers attached. In anatomy the word is used for the folds of tissue that edge certain openings, and in botany for the lower lip of a flower such as those of the mint family. The plural is labia, and the matching upper structure of an insect is the labrum.
