Examples
Some children will rub the lobule of the ear, others will suck their fingers, or will stimulate their mouths in other ways.
The third premolar is very large, and agrees with its upper one, excepting the lobule on the inner border.
The lobule should be shapely, not adherent, not too pendulous and free from grooves extending from the scaphoid fossa.
The anti-helix may be unduly prominent or be insignificant; the scaphoid fossa may extend through the lobule or be triple.
The lobule may be adherent and sometimes almost absent, thus producing the jug-handle-shaped, or so-called Morel ear.
