imaginal tissue [FBbt_00047552]
Any group of similar imaginal cells, such as an imaginal disc, imaginal ring or imaginal island, or a precursor tissue that forms one of them. These tissues develop separately from other embryonic and larval tissues and they generate adult structures during metamorphosis.
