'''FORAMEN''' [intercameral foramen] (plural: foramina) – the opening or openings that allow communication between the lumina of consecutive chambers and provide passage for functional [[endoplasm]]. May be primary, hence formed by an initial [[cameral aperture]], or secondary, ''i.e.'' formed by resorption of [[masks]] or other parts of the [[septum]] ([[tunnel]]). Cameral apertures converted into intercameral foramina may be modified in shape by resorption or through restriction by attachment of a [[toothplate]], [[foramenal plate]] or [[umbilical plate]].
