Where:

UML-2.5.1: 'Property::defaultValue : ValueSpecification [0..1] Specifies a ValueSpecification that represents a value to be used when no argument is supplied for the Parameter.'

But note that a ValueSpecification may specific a set of values:

UML-2.5.1: 'A ValueSpecification is the specification of a (possibly empty) set of values. A ValueSpecification is a ParameterableElement that may be exposed as a formal TemplateParameter and provided as the actual parameter in the binding of a template.'
