GROUND
Grounded to UBERON:0009964 'crustacean maxillary gland' (EXACT). Variant-match review (#12): the variant route reaches UBERON:0001736 'submandibular gland', a mammalian SALIVARY gland. The path is Crustaceans > Excretory system, and UBERON has a distinct crustacean maxillary gland. Same word, different phylum and different organ system.
