Description
[Term]
id: UBERON:0008911
name: chondral bone
def: "Replacement bone that forms within or surrounding a cartilaginous skeletal element." [zfin:curator]
comment: This class was introduced to be consistent with the ZFA hierarchy. The term was never introduced into VSAO.
is_a: UBERON:0012075 {source="ZFA"} ! replacement bone
xref: ZFA:0001693 ! chondral bone
xref: AAO:0010774 ! chondral bone
need a decision:
- obsolete? need reason.
- merge?
- keep? if so, make perichondral bone a subclass, as in ZFA?
- treat as species specific?

Research direction
Start with the UBERON:0008911 term block and review its stated parent, ZFA and AAO cross-references, and the note about VSAO. Compare the relevant ZFA hierarchy, then establish whether the term should be obsoleted, merged, retained, or treated as species-specific. Done means the issue's decision is resolved and the ontology term and hierarchy reflect it.
