Lekku

Lekku (singular: lek), also wrongly referred to as headtails,The Essential Guide to Species were long, fleshy appendages that protruded from the head of the Togruta and Twi'lek species. The former species had three, combined with a Togruta's montrals, and the latter had two or four. On Togrutas, two lekku hung on the front side of the body and one down the back. The males sported shorter lekku than females.
In Twi'leks, however, the two lekku hung down the back of their heads, and both male and female had roughly equal lekku sizes. In both species, lekku were sensitive to touch, and in the Togruta species they also served as hearing organs in place of the regularly found ear in most species. Twi'lek males did have regular humanoid ears, while the females had cone-shaped lobes called nauin.
