When visible, sulcus that differentiates the clypeus from the rest of the lower face; sometimes used only for the mostly horizontal portion of the sulcus between the anterior tentorial pits (see also clypeogenal sulcus).

Epistomal sulcus sensu Goulet and Huber 1993 and one of the two instances sensu Gibson et al. 1998 are homonyms, since they refer the anatomical cluster composed of the clypeogenal sulcus and epistomal sulcus sensu HAO.
