rhabdites
rhabdites In Turbellaria and some species of Nemertini (indicating a link between flatworms and nemerteans), rod-shaped bodies of unknown function contained in scattered cells in or below the ectoderm. Some workers have suggested they are defensive structures whose discharge produces a protective, sticky coat around the organism; others consider them to be excretory.
