What's the Preferred Term - 7/18/2011

Recap from last post: It has been a while since the last post (grants!!!) but last time both Jennings and Fernandez Triana both suggested "malar space" for the class "HAO:0001393: The area that is extends between the lower (anerior) eye margin and the anterolateral margin of the cranium, and its width is delimited by the width of the mandible". As for the class "HAO:0000221: The area of the integument that is weakly sclerotized, with thin exocuticle" we will keep the label "conjunctiva" since no one had any opinions.
