What's the Preferred Term - 5/23/2011

Recap from last week: For the first class, "HAO:0001205: The line that is longitudinal, extends ventrally on the mesopleuron and corresponds with the site of origin of the second and third mesopleuro-third axillary sclerite of fore wing and the second mesopleuro-mesonotal muscles", "sternaulus" was initially chosen, but Broad pointed out that the label is applied to another feature in ichneumonoids (and, indeed this is another class in the ontology - see HAO:0000953) so we will keep "transepisternal line" as the pereferred label. For the second class, "HAO:0000808: The pit that is located on upper face adjacent the anterior margin of the median ocellus and corresponds internally to a conical apodeme and not the tentorium" Gergely chose "preocellar pit".
