What's the Preferred Term - 6/13/2011

Recap from last post: Jennings suggested the preferred term "metathoracic spiracle" for the class "HAO:0000769: The spiracle that is located dorsally on the border between the mesopectus and the metapectus" so we will provide that accordingly. For the second class "HAO:0001665: The sulcus that is longitudinal and extends posteriorly of the first abdominal spiracle" we had some discussion (initiated by Burks) about the validity of the definition and labels having to do with a sulcus, something that cannot be determined easily for all groups. An agreement was made to possibly substitute "groove" for "sulcus". For now, we will go with Burks' suggestion of using "postspiracular furrow" until a better definition can be achieved.

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".

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.

What's the Preferred Term - 4/25/2011

Recap from last week: For the first definition, "HAO:0001358: The pit that corresponds with the mesopleural apodeme", Fernández-Triana and Jennings both agreed that "mesopleural pit" is the most clear and accurate term for that class. For the other class, "HAO:0000735: The carina that is located laterally on the propodeum" there was much discussion regarding the identity of the class (in relation to other carinae on the propodeum of Ichneumonoidea and Chalcidoidea), but otherwise the term "plica" was chosen as the preferred one.

What's the Preferred Term - 4/19/2011

Recap from last week: For the first term, Burks argued that "purely linguistic grounds suggest that auxilium is
best. Auxilia is the plural, and I don't see why the extra word "sclerite" would be needed", so we will use the term "auxilium" to describe the sclerite. For the second term, both Jennings and Burks agreed that "anterior ocellus" is too relative with regards to head direction, etc. The term "median ocellus" was deemed the most accurate, thus we will use it as the preferred label.
