NB: I wouldn't use "concretely" to translate "concretamente". I usually prefer "specifically".

"Pappus" is the more technical term:

Coincido  Diana Badder: Thank you all, I can't see where the asker has to reply!!"Concretely" is Spanish contamination! it isn't in the text, but I think "pappus" is great though it could simply be "down" or "fuzz" and "provisto" would be "attached" or covered?
