What's the difference between cuticle and cuticular?
Cuticle
Definition:
(n.) The scarfskin or epidermis. See Skin.
(n.) The outermost skin or pellicle of a plant, found especially in leaves and young stems.
(n.) A thin skin formed on the surface of a liquid.
Example Sentences:

Cuticular
Definition:
(a.) Pertaining to the cuticle, or external coat of the skin; epidermal.
Example Sentences:
(1) The binding sites were mainly located on the stereocilia, the cuticular plate of hair cells, the head plates of Deiters' cells, fibrous structures in pillar cells, in the spiral limbus and tectorial membrane and basilar membrane, plasma membranes, mitochondria and the chromatin of various kinds of cells.
(2) Each ocellus has a cuticular lens located on the distal end of a cuticular cone which encapsulates the receptor cells.
(3) The S character of Drosophila simulans, the absence or malformation or both of bristles and other cuticular structures, was described by Comendador (Drosophila Inf.
(4) Alterations of the epicuticular and cuticular structures could be found near the attachment site of the cells.
(5) This paper describes the development of the gland cells and formation of the intra-cuticular lumen and its ultrastructure during engorgement and oviposition in ixodid ticks.
(6) The major differences in the histological anatomy of these larvae were found to be the body diameter, form of lateral alae when present, presence or absence of internal cuticular bars, shape and internal patterns of the excretory columns, and size and number of intestinal cells.
(7) In order to determine the division at which chromosome loss occurs, we estimated the fraction of XO nuclei resulting from X chromosome loss by scoring the phenotype of 47 adult cuticular landmarks in 160 XX-XO mosaics (gynandromorphs) derived from maternal X chromosome loss, and 33 gynandromorphs derived from paternal X chromosome loss.
