What domain is the ontology intended to cover?

Insect Anatomy

Related OBO Foundry ontologies

AISM, CL, PATO, CARO, BSPO, RO, UBERON

Intended use/related projects

We intend to use this ontology for describing beetle phenotypes, expanding towards data mining applications that can eventually inform data matrices and partition schemes for phylogenetic analyses.

Data source

This ontology includes butterflies and moths-specific anatomical terms, with terms and definitions extracted primarily from
Seifert G (1995) Entomologisches Praktikum. 3. Auflage. G. Thieme Verlag, Stuttgart, New York: 332 pp. and Kristensen, N. P., & Simonsen, T. J. (1999). Handbook of Zoology, Lepidoptera, Moths and Butterflies, 2: Morphology Physiology, and Development.

Additional comments or remarks

OBO Foundry pre-registration checklist

To be considered for inclusion in the OBO Foundry, an ontology must meet certain requirements, as described in in the registration process instructions and the registration review checklist. To ensure you are aware of some of its key points, please review the checklist below.

You can either check a box by submitted the request first and then using the GitHub interface, or replacing the - [ ] by - [X] in the following.

• I have read an understood the registration process instructions and the registration checklist
• There is no other ontology in the OBO Foundry which would be an appropriate place for my terms. If there was, I have contacted the editors, and we decided in mutual agreement that a separate ontology is more appropriate.
• My ontology has a specific release file with a version IRI and a dc:license annotation, serialised in RDF/XML.
• I understand that term definitions, while not mandatory, are key to understanding the intentions of a term especially when the ontology is used in curation. I made sure that a reasonable majority of terms in my ontology have definitions, using the IAO:0000115 property.
• For every term in my ontology, I checked whether another OBO Foundry ontology has one with the same meaning. If so, I re-used that term directly (not by cross-reference, by directly using the IRI).
• For all relationship properties (Object and Data Property) I checked whether RO includes an appropriate one. I understand that aligning with RO is an essential part of the overall alignment between OBO ontologies!
• For the selection of appropriate annotation properties, I looked at OMO first. I understand that aligning ontology metadata and term-level metadata is essential for cross-integration of OBO ontologies.
• If I was not sure about the meaning of any of the checkboxes above, I have consulted with a member of the OBO Foundry for advice.

Metadata

Please fill in the following metadata record which will be used by the OBO Foundry website. Note that the values shown are just examples, for example yourfourletterid could be something like aism, cohm, mondo (it does not have to be four letters). your_domain_like_for_example_anatomy could be simply anatomy, and the license should be whatever your actual license is. An example can be found here, but you really only need to fill in the metadata mentioned here.

@luis-gonzalez-m, Thank you very much for your submission!

The initial dashboard check looks good.

there are no current uses of this ontology besides manuscripts in preparation.

We will discuss this during our next OBO Foundry committee call before assigning a reviewer.

[cmungall]

I see no major issues with this. I made issues in the tracker but these are non blocking for submission to OBO. Also coordinating on slack

[zhengj2007]

Discussed on 12-14-2021 call. Approved to add to OBO.

Next steps:

1. Make a pull request like this one to add your metadata: https://github.com/OBOFoundry/OBOFoundry.github.io/pull/1673/files
2. Create a purl config like https://github.com/OBOFoundry/purl.obolibrary.org/blob/master/config/aism.yml
