Ontologizing morphological terms for Hymenoptera (Insecta) - implementing and benefiting from a controlled vocabulary Andrew R. Deans Gregory A. Riccardi Fredrik Ronquist School of Computational Science, Florida State University
2
Hymenoptera one of 4 megadiverse insect orders (>115,000 described spp.) includes sawflies, ants, bees, social wasps, parasitic wasps
3
Hymenoptera Relationships
4
HymAToL - Assembling the Tree of Life for Hymenoptera >30 people collaborating to resolve relationships between the major lineages of Hymenoptera molecules morphology
5
Terminological Issues same spelling but different structure (e.g., “face”)
6
same structure but different spelling Terminological Issues “unguis” or “(pre)tarsal claw”
7
Terminological Issues obscure terms outdated terms (=to be discouraged) or taxon-specific terms alitrunk gaster
8
Ontology - controlled, explicit vocabulary includes relationships (“part of”, “synonym of”, etc.) hierarchical treats outdated terminology terms are verbally defined and illustrated incorporates taxon-specificity Several ways to implement and benefit...
9
Search for - “claw” “pretarsus” “orbicula” “ungues” “unguis”
10
OR Search for - “pretarsus” + related terms
11
Annotations high-lighting feedback
12
Phylogenetic tools high-lighting feedback
