wings Explanation: "Wings" should be another option (see e.g. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4972888/ ). "Pins" are mentioned in this article as well, and 8-10 pins may be more easily arranged around a distal conical stem than 8-10 wings or fins, but I am not sure if a Spanish person would use "aleta" to refer to a pin-type protrusion. Do you have any images of the stems which are being compared in your text? As for "pegs": these would be fixation devices attached from the outside rather than protrusions of the stem itself. |
