An Entity of Type: Abstraction100002137, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org:8891

The labial scales are the scales of snakes and other scaled reptiles that border the mouth opening. These do not include the median scales on the upper and lower jaws (rostral and mental scales). The term labial originates from Labium (Latin for "lip"), which refers to any lip-like structure. In snakes, there are two different types of labial scales: supralabials and sublabials. The numbers of these scales present, and sometimes the shapes and sizes, are some of many characteristics used to differentiate species from one another. There are two different types of labial scales:

  • The labial scales are the scales of snakes and other scaled reptiles that border the mouth opening. These do not include the median scales on the upper and lower jaws (rostral and mental scales). The term labial originates from Labium (Latin for "lip"), which refers to any lip-like structure. In snakes, there are two different types of labial scales: supralabials and sublabials. The numbers of these scales present, and sometimes the shapes and sizes, are some of many characteristics used to differentiate species from one another. There are two different types of labial scales: * Supralabials are the scales that form part of the upper lip. Also called upper labials. * Sublabials are the scales that form part of the lower lip. Also called infralabials or lower labials. (en)
  • De labiale schub is een van de schubben aan de lip (labium). De term wordt gebruikt in de herpetologie om de schubben van reptielen aan te duiden die gelegen zijn aan de kop. De schubben aan de bovenlip worden de supralabiale schubben genoemd en die aan de onderlip de sublabiale schubben. De rostrale schub, een enkelvoudige schub aan de voorzijde van de bovenkaak, wordt niet tot de labiale schubben gerekend. (nl)
