Hepatic caecum or hepatic cecum is a name used in describing various physiological structures in some crustaceans, insects and lancelets. "Hepatic" refers to the liver, and the hepatic caecum may perform some functions that are analogous to the functions of the liver in vertebrates (except for lancelets, whose "proto-liver" is homologous).
