zona calva
This is in a livestock manual dealing with gestation in pigs.
En esta placenta el corion no está totalmente cubierto por vellosidades, sino que a nivel de los apéndices terminales hay unas porciones de corion liso denominadas zonas calvas.
The little areas on either end of the diffuse placenta in swine that lack chorionic villi, what are they called in English?
I'm not sure if I can call these chorion laeve, because that's a pretty general term for an area smooth placenta and might not apply here?
Thanks in advance!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chorion
The part of the chorion that is in contact with the decidua capsularis undergoes atrophy, so that by the fourth month scarcely a trace of the villi is left. This part of the chorion becomes smooth, and is named the chorion laeve (from the Latin word levis, meaning smooth). As it takes no share in the formation of the placenta, this is also named the non-placental part of the chorion. As the chorion grows, the chorion laeve comes in contact with the decidua parietalis and these layers fuse.
