notum

Seen from above, the notum shields the insect's head.

The dorsal surface of nudibranchs is also known as the notum.

It has opaque white lines along the notum and irregular reddish-orange spots.

It has black spots scattered over the notum.

Its body is apricot-coloured with clusters of white spots on its notum.

It is a slender-bodied nudibranch with orange markings on its notum.

The notum is the dorsal portion of an insect's thoracic segment.

The notum and cerata may have opaque white encrustations.

Aiteng ater has a notum with a free margin.

Although the ground colour is a creamy white, this is mostly hidden by a large brown patch which covers most of the notum.

The animal may also have irregular brown stripes rather than spots on the notum, radiating out to the margins.

Could your gravity forget so old and noted a remnant, as lippis et tonsoribus notum?

Knobbly paired cerata extend down the margins of the smooth notum.

The edge of the triangular bluish foot is orange and extended posteriorly beyond the notum.

A set of tergosternal muscles pull the notum downward again, causing the wings to flip upward.

Numerous branched projections on the notum aid in camouflage, and may be extended or retracted.

The ground colour is white or grey and there are usually black, yellow or orange stripes longitudinally along the notum, though these can be absent.

The notum on the first thoracic segment is called pronotum, the second mesonotum, and the third metanotum.

In the latter case the intersegmental sclerite forms a narrow band at the front of the notum and is known as the acrotergite.

The dorsal surface is called the tergum (or notum) to distinguish it from the abdominal terga.

The warty pleurobranch has an oval sandy-coloured body with large opaque white bumps on the notum.

Dendronotus has an elongated, broad body, with 4 to 8 pairs of branched cerata on the notum.

The brown-dotted nudibranch is a pale-bodied dorid with scattered brown dots over the notum.

The "land control" areas, one of the major additions in Notum Wars, were described by Krause as "not only interesting, but fun."

Frowning, Carradee held the notum bloom to her nose and peered at the black-haired nobleman over its petals.
