Solution

The series of sacculations or outpocketings on the wall of the large intestine are known as Haustra. These are small pouches created by the contractions of the colon that allow for the expansion and elongation of the large intestine.

To clarify the other terms in your options:

  1. Taenia coli: This is a band of smooth muscle that runs along the length of the colon and helps to create the haustra by contracting.
  2. Rugae: These are folds in the lining of certain organs, like the stomach, not specifically related to the large intestine.
  3. Epiploic appendages: These are small pouches of fat that hang from the colon but do not refer to the mucosal structure or pouching of the intestinal wall itself.

Thus, the correct answer to the question is Haustra.
