The epiglottis is one of the three large unpaired laryngeal cartilages, the other two being the book shaped thyroid and the signet ring shaped cricoid cartilages. The thyroid notch is also termed the laryngeal prominence/Adamâs apple. There are also three paired cartilages i.e. the arytenoid, corniculate and cuneiform.
Generally only mammals have an epiglottis. Therefore dogs, humans, cats, cows (etc) can all be mentioned as examples. Reptiles have an analogous structure, which serves the same function but does not have cartilage in it. See he related link below for more information.
