After 20 years from last issue of anatomical nomenclature (Terminologia Anatomica) and 11 years from last issue of histological nomenclature (Terminologia Histologica), a revised and extended version of the anatomical and histological nomenclatures of the sensory organs appeared as an integral part of the newly established Terminologia Neuroanatomica (TNA), validated by the Executive Com mittee of the International Federation of Associations of Anatomists (IFAA) in 2016. It is freely accessible at http://FIPAT.library.dal.ca and the terms are arranged in five columns: Latin official term, British English official term, American English official term, Latin synonyms and English synonyms, completed with eponyms. It covers the olfactory, visual, vestibulocochlear and gustatory organs. The example of revised or added terms will be discussed as well terms which have stayed unincorporated, like Dua’s layer.
