| macula |
(pl. maculae) L. macula = stain, spot, blemish. This root has no obvious relationship to the maculae, which are vaguely sac-like areas of the vestibular apparatus in the inner ear involved in the perception of linear acceleration, orientation in a gravity field, and low-frequency or high-volume sounds. See The Ear. Presumably the name comes from some histological property.
