Summary

  • Added three new terms for skeletal elements found in early ray-finned fishes:
    • antopercle (UBERON:7770001)
    • dermohyal (UBERON:7770002)
    • lateral gular (UBERON:7770003)

Details

  • All terms are classified as a type of dermal bone
  • Appropriate part_of relationships were added to each term
  • References to scientific publications were included in the definitions
  • Added contributor attribution via ORCID

Closes #3431

…al, lateral gular.

Added new terms with IDs UBERON:7770001, UBERON:7770002, and UBERON:7770003 for skeletal elements in early ray-finned fishes (Actinopterygii) based on issue #3431.

- antopercle: Paired dermal element anterior to the opercle and posterior to the dermohyal
- dermohyal: Paired element that is typically fused to the hyomandibula
- lateral gular: Paired dermal elements on the ventral surface of the skull bearing the gular pit line

@cmungall - IDs will clash.

Also would strongly prefer taxon constraints to be present.

@cmungall @matentzn Need some changes:

  1. Assign new IDs, if PR #3536 using these IDs is not closed
  2. Update definitions with source annotations
  3. Add relationship relationship: in_taxon NCBITaxon:7898 ! Actinopterygii to each
id: UBERON:7770012 (Proposed)
name: antopercle 
def: "Paired dermal element anterior to the opercle and posterior to the dermohyal." [Nielsen, E. (1942). Studies on Triassic fishes from East Greenland 1. Glaucolepis and Boreosomus. Palaeozoologica Groenlandica 1, 1–403]
relationship: in_taxon NCBITaxon:7898 ! Actinopterygii
id: UBERON:7770013 (Proposed)
name: dermohyal
def: "Paired element that is typically fused to the hyomandibula. This element is often referred to as the antoperculum/antopercular but is distinct in being fused to the hyomandibula."

relationship: in_taxon NCBITaxon:7898 ! Actinopterygii
