The term '''Capitulum''' can refer to
*In [[botany]], plants may have a [[flower head]] that is a dense, with indeterminate [[inflorescence]] of [[sessile]] or subsessile flowers crowded on a compound [[receptacle]]; sometimes called a capitulum.
*In [[entomology]], some species of [[stick insect]]s, like the genus [[Bacteria (genus)|Bacteria]] have a structure similar to an [[elaiosome]] on their eggs, which encourages [[ants]] to pick them up and carry them away. The ants burry the eggs, where they are less likely to be parasitized by [[wasp]]s.
*In [[human anatomy]], the capitulum is found at the distal end of the humerus bone.
