Lina Alba: A fibrous band that runs vertically along the center of the anterior abdominal wall and receives the attachments of the oblique and transverse abdominal muscles. Also called white line.
There is no fibrous connective tissue in bone, but there is dense irregular tissue known as periosteum that covers bones (all except the articulating surfaces) and provides attachment sites for tendons and ligaments.
A fibrous joint is a structural classification where bones are joined by fibrous connective tissue. Examples of fibrous joints include sutures in the skull and syndesmoses in the distal tibiofibular joint.
The synovial membrane consists of fibrous connective tissue overlying loose connective tissue. It lines joint cavities and produces synovial fluid to lubricate and cushion the joint surfaces.
Technically they are the same. Fibrous connective tissue is basically any kind of connective tissue different than adipose and areolar. The fibrous connective tissue has more fibroblast and collagen fiber (a characteristic of dense connective tissue) but no much of elastic fibers (which is the histological difference with cartilage). Of course, we have to exclude blood, lymph and bones from the fibrous tissues because they are specialized connective tissue and have totally different characteristics than dense and loose connective tissue.
Fibroblasts are the cells responsible for producing the fibers and ground substances that form the matrix of fibrous connective tissue. They synthesize collagen, elastin, and other components that provide strength and support to the tissue.

Ligaments are the fibrous connective tissue that holds bones in a joint together.

The fibrous connective tissue joining the tooth to the tooth socket is the periodontal ligament.

The group of tissue with the two types, soft and hard tissue, is connective tissue. Loose connective tissue and fibrous connective tissue hold your body parts together.
The diaphysis is covered and protected by a fibrous connective tissue membrane, the periosteum.
