Category:GO:0031633 ! xanthophore
name: xanthophore
namespace: cellular_component
def: "A chromatophore containing yellow pigment." [ISBN:0395825172]
comment: Note that this term refers to a subcellular structure, and should not be confused with the specialized cells known as xanthophores, which produce yellow pigment and are found in fish and amphibian skin. Note that several terms in the biological process ontology ('xanthophore differentiation ; GO:0050936' and its children) refer to xanthophores in the sense of pigment-producing cells.
