Glossary help please.
Trying to ID a plant and need help with a word/decription so I can search keys. Can someone tell me the botanical/scientific name for the tiny white dots at the tip of each tooth on the margin of this leaf?

This is a NOID plant that I posted here:

They appear to be hydathodes, although keys commonly use the more generic term "glands" .

Thanks. I'll give that a try.
Never would have seen the little dots if it weren't for digital photography. Whistling
Tried searching using the term 'glands' but the results were all over the map.
