frontal lamina

frontal lamina
(Order Isopoda):
A sternal plate arising between the bases of the antennae and probably homologous to the epistome of their arthropods; in many isopods the frontal lamina may extend anteriorly to be visible in the dorsal aspect; in many Valvifera the upper and lower regions of this structure may be separately elevated and visible in the dorsal aspect as two distinct structure (frontal lamina 1 and frontal lamina 2) [Wetzer et al. 1997].
