Unreferenced date March 2007 Pettipants are a type of lingerie worn by women. The name is probably derived from a portmanteau of the French language French word petit small , the spelling petti coming more directly from petticoat , and the English word pants . Pettipants are similar to long shorts, though they may be made from material such as cotton and lace, and usually have ruffles down each leg. They are available in different lengths up to knee length. When pettipants were fashionable, they were usually worn under skirts, dresses, culottes, or walking shorts for modesty or comfort. However, they are not considered a modern or popular style currently they are most likely to be worn by square dance rs or persons involved in historical reenactment . Unlike other types of underwear, pettipants will not ride up and eliminate hot weather chafing.

It is a thickened axial ridge in the Animal shell shell of some families of gastropods. A varix is located at intervals around the Whorl mollusc whorl , and is formed by considerable thickening of the outer lip at a resting stage in the growth of the shell. In other words, in gastropods whose shells have varices, the shells are characterised by episodic growth the shell grows in spurts, and during the resting phase the varix forms. Gastropods whose shells have varices are primarily families and species within the taxonomic groups Littorinimorpha and Neogastropoda . In many gastropods bearing varices, for example the Cassinae , the varix is essentially merely a thickening and swelling of the shell at that point. But in some genera within the family Muricidae , such as Chicoreus , Hexaplex , Pteropurpura and Pterynotus , and also within the genus Biplex of the family Ranellidae , the varices are characterised by elaborate ruffles, frills or lamellae. Some other genera, for example Murex , are armed with protective spines which may be straight or curved, and which are formed by the varices closing or curling around their axis.
