英语百科

Ozopore

Above: Ozopore (circled) of the millipede Martensodesmus cattienensis. Below: ozopore magnified.
Ozopore on an elevated ozophore above the eye of Pettalus (Cyphophthalmi)

An ozopore is the opening of a defensive gland present in some arthropods, notably in millipedes of the order Polydesmida and in harvestmen, the eight-legged arachnids also known as "daddy long-legs", as well as many species of mollusc. The glands themselves are known as ozadenes, also called "scent glands", "repugnatorial glands", "odoriferous glands" or "stink glands" by various authors. The name is derived from Ancient Greek ozo "smell" and Latin porus "pore, small opening".
