The spot on the p: That would be a taper



The spot on the t: That's a cupped stem



The spot on the a: would just be a closed-bowl stroke where it meets the stem.

Joint


joint: gradual coming together of two strokes that meet to become one.


Could also be called the apophyge in some situations:


apophyge: small curved part, usually ΒΌ circle, which connects the main stem with the terminals or serifs.


Also realize you've kind of circled the joint of a tail, a crossbar, and an bowl/stem.

In the case of p or t, it seems apophyge may be more appropriate. But the tail would be a joint.
