|---|---|
| occipital region of head | The surface region of the head corresponding to the outlines of the occipital bone. Synonym: regio occipitalis capitis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| olfactory region of tunica mucosa of nose | The specialised olfactory receptive area that includes the upper one-third of the nasal septum and the lateral wall above the superior concha; it is lined with olfactory mucosa.
