The four types of tastebuds are all papillae, that is (raised surfaces of the tongue) and are namely: fungiform, filiform and foliate and circumvallate.

Fungiform papillae are mushroom shaped and occur at the tip of the tongue. Filiform papillae does not assist in taste detection only function. Foliate papillae is towards the posterior part of the tongue and is found on the lateral margins. Circumvallate papillae line the back of the tongue.
