Lleolir y corffyn pineol neu weithiau y trydydd llygaid (Sa: pineal body; Lladin: epiphysis cerebri neu epiphysis) yn yr ymennydd. Chwaren pineol ydyw sy'n cynhyrchu melatonin, sef hormon allweddol sy'n effeithio cwsg bodau dynol.^[1]^[2]

Mae'n edrych yn debyg iawn i gôn y pinwydd (neu 'foch coed'), a dyna darddiad ei enw Lladin.
