male-specific anatomical entity

ID: FBbt_00048490

Anatomical entity of the male that is not found in the same form in the female. If there is a counterpart in the female, the male and female types are substantially different.

For example, the testis is male-specific since it is substantially different to the ovary, which may be considered to be the female-specific counterpart. A male wing is not substantially different to a female wing, so is not considered male-specific.
