| velum triangulare | A double fold of pia mater, enclosing subarachnoid trabeculae, between the fornix above and the epithelial roof of the third ventricle and the thalami below; at each lateral margin is a vascular fringe projecting into the choroidal fissure of the lateral ventricle; on its undersurface are several small vascular projections filling the folds of the ependymal roof of the third ventricle.

| frenulum clitoridis | The line of union of the inner-laminae portions of the labia minora on the undersurface of the glans clitoridis. Synonym: frenulum clitoridis, frenulum preputii clitoridis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| frenulum epiglottidis | <anatomy> A fold of mucous membrane in the midline that extends from the back of the tongue to the epiglottis, forming the medial boundary of the epiglottic valleculae. Synonym: plica glossoepiglottica mediana, frenulum epiglottidis, middle glossoepiglottic fold. (05 Mar 2000) |
| frenulum labii inferioris | frenulum of lower lip |
