Epitheliell is not a widely recognized term in standard biological nomenclature. It does not appear in major histology or anatomy references, and its meaning is unclear without context. In many cases, terms like epithelium, epithelial cell, or epithelioid may have been intended, or the word may represent a very narrow neologism used in a specific text or fictional setting.
