    Pyrex ground glass stopper

    I have an assortment of vintage glass reagent bottles I'm preparing to sell, and I need to know how to describe them accurately. Some have "pennyhead" stoppers, some have "flathead stoppers," and some have "dropper stoppers," but I'm stuck on what to call a fourth type of stopper, which is only on the Pyrex bottles. They look like this one:

    Does anyone know if this type of stopper has a name?

    I've always referred to these as "Thumb twist" or "Flange" stoppers, but have not seen very many of them referred to in any way other than just "Stopper".
