Partibus Mulierum Generationi Dicatis (1586) is a text by the Swiss doctor Felix Platter.

Let us now proceed with our inquiries as to the other portions of the pudenda; and we shall find that the next in order is the part called the labia, the labia externa, or labia majora. They are called by Felix Plater, in his Treatise de Partibus Mulierum Generationi Dicatis, by the name of Colles, seu monticuli. The Greeks called them x^^'^'^i- Krauss, in his Lexicon, says that the Latin labium or labrura, is probably from the Greek xa/3w. The German is schaamlefzen, the French grandeslevres, the Italian grandi labbra pudende. --Females and Their Diseases; A Series of Letters to His Class by Charles Delucena Meigs
