What's the Preferred Term - 5/3/2011

Recap from last week: For the first class, "HAO:0000395: The sclerite that is located distally of the gonostipes" we will keep "harpe" as the preferred term (as suggested by Schulmeister), but have added "harpago" to the list of synonyms as suggested by Yoshimura. For the second class, "HAO:0000920: The line that traverses the alinotum between the postmedian notal wing processes", Burks suggested "scutoscutellar suture" be the preferred term.
