The navicular fossa is a short dilated portion of (the spongy (or cavernous or penile) portion of) the male urethra within the glans penis just proximal to the external urethral meatus. The roof of the fossa is especially dilated, forming a lacuna; medical instruments being inserted into the male urethra should initially be directed towards the ...

Fossa navicularis is an alternate name for two different boat-shaped depressions: fossa of vestibule of vagina; navicular fossa of male urethra
In male dogs the glans penis is smooth and consists of two parts called the bulbus glandis and pars longa glandis. [56] The glans of a fossa's penis extends about halfway down the shaft and is spiny except at the tip. In comparison, the glans of felids is short and spiny, while that of viverrids is smooth and long. [57]
This expansion, termed the glans penis, is moulded on the rounded ends of the corpus cavernosum penis, extending farther on their upper than on their lower surfaces. At the summit of the glans is the slit-like vertical opening known as the external urethral orifice, or the urinary meatus .
