Calice

Calice, or Calyx, is a term used to denote certain cup-like portions of animals and plants. Thus, among Corals (q.v.) the term is applied to the upper part of the skeleton of a single individual; among Crinoids the Calyx is the crown minus the arms. The Calyx usually contains the chief viscera.
