A clitallum is a structure found in certain annelids, particularly in earthworms. It is a thickened, glandular segment of the body that plays a crucial role in the reproductive process, producing a mucous ring that helps to form a cocoon for fertilized eggs. The clitellum is typically more prominent during the breeding season and is essential for the successful reproduction of these organisms.
