Bud
- (Taxon-specific: Subclass Copepoda) The earliest step of a developing limb; a limb bud does not articulate with its somite and bear setae including at least the crown group of terminal setae. A limb bud often is considered functionless on immature stages although limb 6 of podopleans is a bud which covers the genital opening of the adult male (see transformed limb and secondary bud).
