A lambium is a small, membranous structure found in certain insects, particularly in the mouthparts of some species. It functions as a labial structure that helps in feeding, often playing a role in manipulating food or aiding in the intake of liquids. The term is derived from the Latin word "labium," which means "lip." Its exact structure and function can vary among different insect groups.
