do we need a separate squamous bone?

[mellybelly]

We have UBERON:0001695 'squamous part of temporal bone' but not the separate class:

External def:
The squamosal bone is part of the dermatocranium in early tetrapods and becomes part of the mammalian occipital and temporal bones. [Bemis_WE, Functional_Anatomy_of_the_Vertebrates:An_Evolutionary_Perspective, Grande_L, Third_Edition(2001)_Orlando_Fla.:_Harcourt_College_Publishers, Walker_WF, p.246, see_Liem_KF][VHOG]

Taxon notes:
The squamosal bone, which is homologous with the squama, and forms the side of the cranium in many bony fish and tetrapods. Primitively, it is a flattened plate-like bone, but in many animals it is narrower in form, for example, where it forms the boundary between the two temporal fenestrae of diapsid reptiles. Editor notes: consider separate class for squamosal

This should be reviewed and a separate class considered.

Be good to have Terry's input here. MA has squamosal bone, EMAPA has "squamous part"

[cmungall]

Alternative: keep as one class. Make the primary label "squamous bone". Add taxon GCI for parthood relationships where the bone is part of another bone

[cmungall]

we're currently treating as the same class, we'll keep this way for now
