The record derives from WCSP which reports it as an accepted name (record 300460) with original publication details: Palestine J. Bot., Jerusalem Ser. 1: 381 1939. (http://www.theplantlist.org/tpl/record/kew-300460)
The reproductive organ (gonads) in female animals. In vertebrates, the ovary contains two functional parts: the ovarian follicle for the production of female germ cells (oogenesis); and the endocrine cells (granulosa cells; theca cells; and luteal cells) for the production of estrogens and progesterone.

Restricted to animals; for plant ovaries use <3451>
Body weight that is above normal for height as a result of an excessive accumulation of fat. It is usually a manifestation of expending less energy than is consumed. In adults, overweight is defined as a body mass index (BMI) of 25 kg/m2 or more, and obesity as a BMI of 30 kg/m2 or more. (WHO. 2023. Child growth standards. In: WHO. https://www.who.int/tools/child-growth-standards/standards)
Overwintering is the process by which some organisms pass through or wait out the winter season, or pass through that period of the year when "winter" conditions (cold or sub-zero temperatures, ice, snow, limited food supplies) make normal activity or even survival difficult or near impossible. In some cases "winter" is characterized not necessarily by cold but by dry conditions; passing through such periods could likewise be called overwintering. Hibernation and migration are the two major ways in which overwintering is accomplished. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overwintering)
Ducts that serve exclusively for the passage of eggs from the ovaries to the exterior of the body. In non-mammals, they are termed oviducts. In mammals, they are highly specialized and known as fallopian tubes. (MeSH. 2025. Oviducts. https://meshb-prev.nlm.nih.gov/record/ui?ui=D010057)
The process of laying or shedding fully developed eggs (ova) from the female body. The term is usually used for certain insects or fishes with an organ called ovipositor where eggs are stored or deposited before expulsion from the body. (National Library of Medicine. MeSH (Medical Subject Headings), 2025, 'Oviposition', http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D010058)
The release of mammalian egg(s) from the ovary. (FAO Glossary of Biotechnology for Food and Agriculture, 2001 (http://www.fao.org/biotech/index_glossary.asp?lang=en).)
Owls are birds from the order Strigiformes which includes over 200 species of mostly solitary and nocturnal birds of prey typified by an upright stance, a large, broad head, binocular vision, binaural hearing, sharp talons, and feathers adapted for silent flight. Owls are divided into two families: the true (or typical) owl family, Strigidae, and the barn-owl family, Tytonidae. (Wikipedia, 2024. Owl. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Owl)
The exploitation of children through any form of work that deprives children of their childhood, interferes with their ability to attend regular school, or is harmful to their physical, mental, social, or moral development. Whether certain forms of “work” qualify as “child labour” depends on factors such as the child’s age, the nature and duration of the work, the conditions in which it takes place, and the specific goals set by each country. The definition can vary not only between countries but also across different sectors within the same country. (FAOLEX. 2025. Glossary https://www.fao.org/faolex/)
Ownership is the state or fact of exclusive rights and control over property, which may be any asset, including an object, land or real estate, intellectual property. (FAOLEX. 2025. Glossary https://www.fao.org/faolex/)
Corneal opacification occurs when the cornea becomes scarred which subsequently prevents light from passing through the cornea to the retina and may cause the cornea to appear white or clouded. (Kumar V, Sankhyan V. Medicinal management of corneal opacity in free ranging rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta) of Shivalik hills in Western Himalayas, Northern India. Open Vet J. 2015;5(1):56-7. Epub 2015 May 29. PMID: 26623367; PMCID: PMC4629566.)
Note
Cataract <c_16402> is similar but has to do with opacity in the lens or capsule, rather than in the cornea.
Oxalate (IUPAC: ethanedioate) is an anion with the formula C2O42−. This dianion is colorless. It occurs naturally, including in some foods. It forms a variety of salts, for example sodium oxalate (Na2C2O4), and several esters such as dimethyl oxalate (C2O4(CH3)2). It is a conjugate base of oxalic acid. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxalate)
Oxalic acid is an organic acid with the IUPAC name ethanedioic acid and formula HO2C−CO2H. It is the simplest dicarboxylic acid. It is a white crystalline solid that forms a colorless solution in water. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxalic_acid)
