I found several references to rugation and I'm 99% certain I've typed it many times in years past.

HTH!

I have seen rugation before. It just means it has the right wrinkles! - Oracle

Instead of thinking of rugae, think of the verb rugate, which means to form wrinkles/folds, so a rugation would be the results of having formed wrinkles (like my forehead). ;0

Oops, correction, she has big wrinkles. - Oracle n/m
