Glandular stomach

As glandular stomach in animals with a complex stomach is called that portion containing glands:

• in ruminants the abomasum ,
• in birds the proventriculus .

Since the entire gastric mucous membrane of animals with a simple single-cavity stomach contains glands, the term glandular stomach can be used synonymously with stomach.
